WebMath: Future of Mathematical Communication Conference

[June Lester]

I'm just back from the Future of Mathematical Communication Conference at
MSRI, and thought I'd pass along some info on the conference, since it was
very much relevant to the focus of this list.  The abstracts and the talks
themselves (most 30 - 40 min., in streaming video) may be viewed from the
conference homepage

http://www.msri.org/activities/events/9900/fmc99/index.html  .

I've also included below a list of speakers and titles.
