3. The RECOMB Conference needs Sites for 1998, 1999, and 2000.
As reserving hotels in some locations requires arrangements
made one or two years in advance, we are soliciting proposals
now for the next sites.
Please send us email with proposals for locations for the
next RECOMB both in US as well as outside US. At the RECOMB 97
business meeting we will discuss these matters in detail.
We hope to see you all at RECOMB 97 in Santa Fe.
