                   POSIX Portability Workshop
                    Berkeley Marina Marriott
                       October 22-23, 1987

This USENIX workshop will bring together system  and  application
implementors  faced  with  the  problems, "challenges," and other
considerations that arise from attempting to make their  products
compliant with IEEE Standard 1003.1.  The first day of the workshop
will consist of presentations of brief position papers describing
experiences,  dilemmas,  and  solutions.  On the second day it is
planned to form smaller focus  groups  to  brainstorm  additional
solutions,  dig  deeper into specific areas, and attempt to forge
common approaches to some of the dilemmas. 
Program chair:

                          Jim McGinness
