   From: 
        "John Carpenter" <jdcar@leland.Stanford.EDU>

To All,
Sorry to be late with this. I was down with some sort of virus that kept
me
in bed for a day.  Also I was awaiting responses from prospective
speakers.

============================================
SILICON VALLEY FIG MEETING
SATURDAY, 24 June 2000

09H45           COFFEE AND PASTRIES

10H00           TECHNICAL SESSION – gForth
This is a Forth that is associated with Linux or Unix.  Any and all who

A gift will be announced for Henry Vinert for providing us his
hospitality
in May.

13H30           FEATURED TALK – Accessing other Application Windows from
Forth, Andy
Korsac
He used the Win32Forth DLL operation to call functions out of a National
Instruments DLL for controlling an HP spectrum analyzer and a LeCroy
scope.
His then developed a routine to store the LeCroy raw data and other
scope
parameters.
He then plans to integrate an adaptation of the WinForth32 dialog box
example for user setups.

14H30           AFTERNOON TEA
Networking and demonstrations

15H00           IMPROMPTU TALKS
Sign up for these talks on the white board during the breaks.
C.H. Ting has signed up for the following:
1. VHDL implementation of P16
2. V2OS, an interesting floppy-booting OS with a Forth like
application-fifth.  It can be the foundation of BIOS Forth, and other
32-bit
protected mode Forths.

16H00           ADJOURN

NEXT BUSINESS MEETING:
Monday, 26 June 2000 (3July is in the 4th of July weekend).  Those with
