+\section{TUG'98: The 1998 \TeX\ Users Group Conference}
+
+\begin{large}\parskip 12pt\parindent 0em
+
+The 1998 \TeX\ Users Group Conference will take place at the Nicholas
+Copernicus University, Toru\'n, Poland from 17th to 21st August
+1998. This conference will be organised and hosted by the Polish TeX
+Users Group, GUST.
+
+Proposals for papers are now being solicited: preference will be given
+to papers which deal most directly with the theme of the conference
+(`Integrating TeX with the surrounding world'), but papers on related
+topics (e.g.~DSSSL, HTML, PDF, SGML, XML, etc.) are not excluded.
+Proposals (which should ideally be written in English, but which may
+be written in another language by prior arrangement) should be sent to
+the TUG'98 Programme Committee (email \url{tug-98-papers@mail.tug.org}).
+
+ Each proposal should include the title, name,
+address, e-mail address and affiliation (where appropriate) of the
+proposer, together with an extended abstract (the latter should
+correspond to approximately one side of A4. In addition, there should
+be an estimate of the necessary time for verbal presentation
+(excluding questions: a further five minutes will be allowed for
+questions after each talk), and a further estimate of the number of
+printed pages which will be required to reproduce the full text of the
+article using the [L]TUGproc macros. Any special needs should also be
+stated (for example, colour pages in the preprints/proceedings;
+e-TeX/pdfTeX/Omega/etc. to process the paper, \ldots).

+ has set aside the sum of \$500 to support one or more members of
+ \uktug{} in attending overseas \TeX-related conferences. There are
+ two main conferences this year which could be supported from this
+ fund, Euro\TeX'98 in St Malo (France) at the end of March, and
+ TUG'98 in Toru\'n; (Poland) in mid August. If you want assistance
+ from this fund, whether for EuroTeX or TUG98, please contact the
