Best regards, --Jerzy Ludwichowski GUST President (on behalf of the Organizing Committee) Please find below the call for papers for BachoTeX 2018. To register visit http://www.gust.org.pl/bachotex/2018-en. See you at the conference venue! What=E2=80=99s to stay, what=E2=80=99s to go =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D Many prints made in Gutenberg times look even now like new and their readability leaves nothing to wish for. On the other hand, getting the contents out of a computer diskette created 15 years ago borders on a miracle. Durability also applies to ideas. One may, for example, dispute if the intellectual property rights do by restricting texts multiplication protect ideas or to the contrary, counteract their proliferation. Algorithms, programs, file formats also go by. Files produced by the so-called word-processors, even if carried over to a new device might be useless because the relevant program does not run on the contemporary computer. TeX proved to be exceptionally resistant against time passing. Is there a way to increase this resistance with some vaccine? Or perhaps there is no need for that. Some parts of the TeX world unexpectedly received a second life, such as the math mode algorithm which has recently been implemented in WWW browsers. Thus, perhaps, valuables will naturally be carried over to new developments? The idea of using polynomial curves to describe computer fonts turned out to be relatively stable. It already survived several =E2=80=9Cpackagings=E2=80=9D: Type 1, TrueType, OpenType. But who knows, if= within the next 10 years a font will be a neural net being able to put black dots in the proper places?=E2=80=A6 We encourage authors to reflect on durability: to what extent we may and need to care for durability of ideas and their forms of expression. Papers/presentations ++++++++++++++++++++ Of course, we look forward to the normal mix of TeX, MetaPost, ConTeXt, LaTeX, and friends related presentations. Please do not forget about fonts! We do upkeep the new BachoTeX trend in which we try to bring together programmers and designers of typographic systems, typographers and other users of such systems. Please note the =E2=80=9CCall for TeX Pearls=E2=80=9D further down. The normal channel of offering papers is the emailing of proposals to the Program Committee, but before rushing off to the mailer, please consult the info for authors. Workshops and tutorials +++++++++++++++++++++++ TBA Poster sessions +++++++++++++++ Participants will be given the opportunity to present their TeX and typographic results in the form of posters for which we provide exhibition space. TeX Pearls ++++++++++ We continue the tradition of the =E2=80=9CPearls of TeX Programming=E2=80= =9D. Metafont/MetaPost do also fall into that category. Details and previously collected pearls can be found at http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/pearls/ <http://www.gust.org.pl/projec ts/pearls/>. Deadlines and addresses +++++++++++++++++++++++ The deadline for =E2=80=9Cregular=E2=80=9D abstracts and other proposals is= March 25th, 2018. The deadline for final papers to appear in the conference materials is April 11th. Contributions should be sent by email to the Program Committee: prog-2018 at gust dot org dot pl. The PC is chaired by Bogus=C5=82aw Jackowski (b underscore jackowski at gust dot org dot pl). _______________________________________________ bestyrelse.tug mailing list --=20 Mosura v/ Kristian Nordestgaard www.mosura.dk Telefon: (+45) 22 31 80 84 CVR: 37891061 --089e0820049461946f05661bfa25 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><br><div class=3D"gmail_quote">---------- Forwarded messag= e ----------<br>From: <b class=3D"gmail_sendername">Jerzy Ludwichowski</b> = <span dir=3D"ltr"><<a href=3D"mailto:[email protected]">Jerzy.Lu= [email protected]</a>></span><br>Date: Mon, Feb 26, 2018 at 11:16 AM<br>= Subject: [bestyrelse] BachoTeX 2018: call for papers, registrations<br>To: = LUG boards <<a href=3D"mailto:[email protected]">[email protected].= no</a>><br><br><br>Dear Friends,<br> <br> please pass this on to your members.<br> <br> Best regards,<br> --Jerzy Ludwichowski<br> GUST President<br> (on behalf of the Organizing Committee)<br> <br> <br> Please find below the call for papers for BachoTeX 2018.<br> To register visit <a href=3D"http://www.gust.org.pl/bachotex/2018-en" rel= =3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">http://www.gust.org.pl/bachote<wbr>x/2018= -en</a>.<br> See you at the conference venue!<br> <br> <br> What=E2=80=99s to stay, what=E2=80=99s to go<br> =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D<br> <br> Many prints made in Gutenberg times look even now like new and<br> their readability leaves nothing to wish for.
