Dear FORUM,

Re: /message/12442

 

As many of us carrying out research in this area would not be able to make it to

such conferences, it would be great if the proceedings of the same are made

available online.

Dear Members,

 

I attended the conference. Indeed it was very well organised conference where

issues were seriously debated. Most of the papers were of high quality and they

generated tremendous interest amongst audience.

 

NACO distributed CD of the proceedings. I request the officials to put it up on

the NACO website for the benefit of those who could not make it to the

conference.

Thanks.
