Robocup: battlebots for the thinking white trash. Teams of autonomous
robots (remote control strictly verboten) play, well, soccer. Since
1997 (first world cup, Nagoya, Nippon).

Robocup 2000 in Melbourne (28 August-3 September),

Woo! Our geeks are brainier than your geeks.

Teams from 35 countries in 4 cathegories (small size, midsize, purely
virtual simulation league and Sony legged league -- yep, AIBOs with
custom firmware) will be present.

P.S. Sorry, can't send mail to AOL and CompuServe accounts. Either my
masquerading looks intrinsically suspect, or the dialup IP
address pool has been blackholed.
