The Turing Lecture by Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn is OPEN TO ALL!

SIGCOMM 2005 is the host for this year's ACM Turing Lecture, and has
opened the Lecture beyond the conference attendees to ALL who are
interested.  In addition, SIGCOMM will stream it live over the Internet
that Cerf &  Kahn helped create.

* You are invited to attend the ACM Turing Lecture in Philadelphia, PA, US, August 22nd: 6:00-7:30 EDT (and join the reception which begins at 4:30)
  at the Irvine Auditorium, University of Pennsylvania
  (with thanks to Penn's School of Engineering & Applied Science)

* Bring your colleagues, guests, students, advisors... and help Vint & Bob celebrate the first time that networking researchers have received this
  prestigious award, in the 39 years of the ACM Turing Award.

* The Lecture will be a moderated discussion between Vint and Bob, with
  the title: Assessing the Internet: Lessons Learned, Strategies for
  Evolution, and Future  Possibilities

  Afterwards, there will be a Q&A session with the audience.

* To reserve one of 600 seats set aside for the public, please
  sign up via the Turing Lecture web page:
