[ROOT] ANNOUNCEMENT - ROOT2001 Workshop June 13, 14, 15 at Fermilab

From: Jeff Kallenbach (jeffk@fnal.gov)
Date: Wed Feb 21 2001 - 19:30:19 MET


The Fermilab Computing Division, along with the ROOT Development Team, will
host ROOT2001, the third Workshop on the use of ROOT.   ROOT usage continues
to
grow within and outside of the HEP community.  ROOT2001, building on the
success of ROOT 1999 and ROOT 2000, is intended to provide a forum where
developers and users of the product can convene to share the status of their
efforts and discuss the future.  The workshop will be held on June 13, 14,
and
15 at Fermilab.

The ROOT development team (Rene Brun, Philippe Canal, Masa Goto and Fons
Rademakers) will present the current status of ROOT development and support
and their plans for the future.  We also hope to have representatives of the
various experiments using ROOT present to discuss their efforts.

The topics to be discussed at ROOT2001 will include:

- Current techincal status of ROOT from the development team, with emphasis
on
features implemented since the last workshop.

- Discussion of extensions that particular experiments have implemented or
are
contemplating.

- Local/central support of ROOT and ROOT users


The Workshop will take the form of an overall presentation of the status of
ROOT from the development team, site reports from the groups attending,
followed by a series of technical discussions about particular aspects of
the
system. Each session will have a coordinator who will introduce the session,
allocate time for the ROOT development team to present, and record results
from
the discussions.

Workshop WWW pages are at www-pat.fnal.gov/root/root2001.  They are under
construction, so be sure to check back frequently.  Another announcement
will be
sent as soon as the on-line registration is available from the WWW pages.

Cheers,
Jeff
