Tutorial Description:

This tutorial is oriented towards providing the basic information to
disseminate information effectively using the World Wide Web.  The
tutorial addresses effective designs for web pages, the use of HTML for
developing web pages, incorporation of graphics, and using FTP and other
automated tools (both UNIX and PC-based) to streamline the dissemination
process.  Strategies for announcements, configuration management,
mailing lists, and databases are addressed.  The ACM host machine will
be used as a model.  Although this tutorial is specifically designed to
support the needs of SIGAda Working Groups and SIGAda Chapters, the
information will be useful to all interested in learning how to set up a
WWW home page.

This tutorial was set up especially to help you become more effective in
your volunteer activities with SIGAda. We encourage you to take
advantage of this opportunity. Chairs of local SIGAda Chapters are
encouraged to forward this email to SIGAda volunteers within their
chapter.

We look forward to seeing you in Redondo Beach!
