Next Thursday (March 19), the NSW Chapter of AUUG has its regular monthly
meeting. 

Peter Miller, back in Sydney after a number of years in the National
Capital, will present his provocative paper "Recursive Make Considered
Harmful". "Make" has been one of the grand success stories of the Unix
development environment and has been emulated on all sorts of systems big
and small. But how well does it scale to large multi-directory projects? 
Put on you thinking caps, read the paper if you can, in AUUGN, or on the
Web at:

ftp://ftp.agso.gov.au/pub/Aegis/rmch/recu-make-cons-harm.html
or
http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~millerp/rmch/recu-make-cons-harm.html

and come along and ask those difficult questions.

The meeting will start at 1830, in the Pendlebury Room of the Wesley
Centre, 220 Pitt St., in Sydney. See http://www.auug.org.au/nswauug/ for
detailed directions to the venue.

Charlie Brady, Secretary
