Upcoming Vinge Singularity Discussion

From: Robin Hanson (hanson@econ.berkeley.edu)
Date: Mon Aug 17 1998 - 11:42:45 MDT


You are all invited to participate in a two week long open
discussion of Vinge's singularity concept on this list, to
begin soon after Sept. 1. Excerps from this discussion will
appear in Extropy Online (http://www.extropy.org/eo/).

I invited 34 people to write up to 1500 word comments on Vinge's
singularity writings. The comments of the 13 people who responded
are currently at http://hanson.berkeley.edu/vc.html . Vinge is
due to complete his reply to those comments by Sept. 1, soon after
which Vinge, his commentors, and anyone else interested will join
in a two week long open discussion.

I'll post a notice when the discussion begins, but I thought
I'd give some warning now, in case folks want to review the
topic and collect their thoughts.
