explorations is the official newsletter of ACM's new Special Interest
Group (SIG) on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining.  Two issues of the
first volume issue are already out and available online at

newsletter is sent to the ACM SIGKDD membership and to a world-wide
network of libraries.

growing SIGKDD community. Advertising rates start at $250

Some words about the SIGKDD newsletter:
--------------------------------------
SIGKDD Explorations is a bi-annual newsletter dedicated to
serve the SIGKDD membership and community.
Our goal is to make SIGKDD Newsletter a very informative, rapid
publication, and interesting forum for communicating with SIGKDD
community.

Submissions will be reviewed by the editor and/or associate editors
as apporpriate. The distribution will be very wide (on the web, to
all members but probably not restricted access the first year, and to
ACM's world-wide network of libraries. Members get e-mail notifications
of new issues and get hardcopies if they desire).
