[COMP] [Fwd: question (fwd)]

Hey, this was sent to me, and it looks like something people around here
might be interested in, if you're good with networking.  If you're not,
perhaps reading the articles once they're out would be informative. :)

> ACM Crossroads has decided to start a monthly column online, focused on
> networking. We're looking for someone to write this column! If you have
> expertise in many of the following areas, we'd love to hear from
> you. Applicants must be students for the entire time that they write the
> column, and we will give preference to those applicants who will be in
> school long enough to write 12 columns (one year's worth). Additionally,
> we prefer students who are members of the ACM, but this is not absolutely
> required.
> The details of the column would be something like this: The four columns
> that coincide with the publication of a print issue will be printed. These
> four columns must not exceed 800 words. The eight remaining columns will
> be published online and thus have no page limitations.
>
> Areas of interest for column topics:
>
> ATM
> Gigabit networking
> High speed networking
> ISDN
> LAN and WAN
> MBONE
> Novel Netware
> TCP/IP
> Routing technology
> ADSL
> Wireless and mobile networking
> etc.
> To apply to be the writer of this monthly online column, send an email to
> crossroads@xxxxxxx and include: 1) Information about yourself: Name, Where
> you go to school, What major you are in, Your expected graduation
> date. 2) Qualifications: Why do you think you are qualified to write this
> column? Include any references to your publications, coursework, or work
> experience. 3) A list of 12 topics (one each month) that you would cover
> if you are chosen. 4) A sample column, in HTML, no more than 800 words.
>
> Incomplete applications will not be considered.

> We will begin evaluating applicants on February 1, 2000, and notify you by
> the end of February 2000.
