            A Note From The Warp Expo West Crew


  We thought we'd fill you in on a few more Warp Expo West 
details, since the show is less than two months away.

  First, we've been blocking out the presentations and 
seminars, and they fall into the following categories.

  IBM:  Steven King, IBM's Development Manager for Network 
Computing, will fly here from Austin, Texas to speak.  
He'll show IBM's new Warp Server for e-Business, TCP/IP 
enhancements, Domino and Java server improvements, 
WorkSpace On-Demand server-managed clients plus the 
Windows32 feature for WorkSpace On-Demand, and Warp Server 
features like the Journaling File System, the Logical 
Volume Manager, WebSphere, NT Server management, and more.  
And in a separate session Steven will show products from 
IBM's Network Computing Software Division covering XML, 
Java, SecureWay, Year2000 and a wide variety of other 
important subjects.

  PROGRAMMING:  A number of programming topics will be 
presented at Warp Expo West, including international 
consultant Steven Levine's "How To Write a Workplace Shell 
Class".  Steven will show you how to subclass existing 
desktop objects and leverage the Workplace Shell's 
functionality into your own programs.  Then he'll show the 
details of building your own Workplace Shell objects and 
conclude with the appropriate development and debugging 
techniques.

  NETWORKING:  The Networking SIG leader for SCOUG, Steve 
Schiffman, will present one of several networking lectures.  
His "Designing Your Home Network" will show you how to 
connect your machines together, how to install the drivers, 
what software you can take advantage of, what your home 
network can do that stand-alone machines can't, and how to 
get all of the networked machines onto the internet through 
just one internet connection.

  MULTIMEDIA AND GRAPHICS:  Jerry Rash will have his entire 
home entertainment center on stage -- video capture and 
playback, audio, editing, CD audio transfers to hard drive 
and back again, format conversions -- and it all runs on an 
OS/2 computer.  Jerry will show you what utilities to use 
(including the free ones), what drivers to use, and he'll 
show you how to set up the OS/2-based multimedia system 
you've been dreaming about!  And Don Baker, the expert on 
inkjet printing, will show you how to get images that look 
like photographs (we've seen him do it!) from your inkjet 
printer.

  WEB SITES:  Netscape Composer is full of tricks to make 
your web pages look great, and there are a handful of other 
web tools that will test and check your web site and catch 
the dozens of little "gotchas" that take weeks to track 
down manually.  Virginia Hetrick returns again this year 
with two more presentations to keep your web site at the A+ 
level.

  ADVOCACY:  We'll have plenty for the OS/2 users who want 
a vision of the future.  Lynn Maxson will speak again on 
his Warpicity project for creating software with his 
specialized Developer's Assistant programming tools, and 
he'll include more details on his methods and the project's 
current status.

  MATHEMATICS AND ENGINEERING:  Ben Archer and Michael 
"Rocky" Rakijas use OS/2 while they do their research, and 
they've selected Octave as the OS/2 program they want to 
talk about and show you how to use.  Signal analysis, curve 
fitting and homework assignments are just the start of what 
can be done with Octave, and Ben and Rocky will show you 
how they've solved many, many problems with this tool.

  AND MORE:  We've got many, many other presentations 
planned for Warp Expo West.  In fact, there are about two 
dozen lecture periods, so you'll have *plenty* to keep you 
busy.

  We'll also have all the OS/2 vendors there, plus the 
Vendor100 shareware showcase, the Birds Of A Feather 
specialized discussion groups, and an after-show Saturday 
evening dinner if you want to stick around for a bit of 
socializing.

  AND WARP EXPO WEST ADMISSION IS FREE!!  This OS/2 show, 
"A Warpfest of OS/2 Entertainment", is sponsored by The 
Southern California OS/2 User Group.  There's no fee for 
attendees, and there's no fee for the OS/2 vendors who will 
show their products.

  Warp Expo West will be in sunny Southern California on 
September 18.

Vendor100 shareware showcase, send an email to

a part of Warp Expo West -- for free!

  And if you have a presentation you'd like to give, or 
you're an expert with certain OS/2 software or OS/2 
technologies, we'd love to hear from you.  We don't mind 
adding extra seminar rooms, and every OS/2 user at Warp 
Expo West wants to hear about OS/2 products and solutions.

  Thanks, from the Warp Expo West crew.  :)
