Groebner Bases in Symbolic Analysis
    Special Semester on Groebner Bases and Related Methods
    Hagenberg - Linz, Austria, May 8-17, 2006

Please note that there will be other proceedings volumes, serving the
scope of the other workshops / sessions of the Special Semester, in
particular:

* The D2.1 Session of our workshop: Difference Equations and
Combinatorial Identities.
* The D2.3 Session of our workshop: Noncommutative Groebner Bases
* The subsequent (related) workshop D3: Control Theory and Signal Processing

Since there were some questions relating to this issue, let me clarify
this point here: You can choose any of these platforms for your
publications as long as they are in scope (and if you choose to submit
to more than one they must be substantially different from each other).

Up to now, we have received 19 replies to our first Call of Papers, 16
of them positive. Please note that the present email is a collective
communication intended to convey to you some general information. In the
next days, I will contact every one of you who has (or will have) sent
me a reply to the Call for Papers, in order to negotiate more details of
the topics.

The deadline for submission will be October 31, 2006. Notification of
acceptance should then be prior to March 31, 2007 such that we can
receive the final version by April 30, 2007. If we keep to this
schedule, the volume will appear in print before the end of 2007.

The page budget is approximately 20-40 pages for a survey/tutorial and
10-20 pages for an original article, but this can also be negotiated on
an individual basis.

Please let us know if you have any further questions regarding the
proceedings in general and your intended publication in particular.

Looking forward to an interesting and successful proceedings volume.
