The KDD Nuggets is a moderated list for the exchange of information 
relevant to Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD, also known as Data, e.g.
application descriptions, conference announcements, tool reviews, 
information requests, interesting ideas, clever opinions, etc.
It has been coming out about every two-three weeks, depending on the
quantity and urgency of the material. 

 Back issues, FAQ, and other KDD-related information are now available 
 via Mosaic, URL http://info.gte.com/~kdd/  or 
 by anonymous ftp to ftp.gte.com, cd /pub/kdd, get README

If you have something relevant to KDD, send it to kdd@gte.com ;

Knowledge Discovery Mine (at http://info.gte.com/~kdd/ ) is a server
installed by Gregory Piatetsky-Shapiro that offers a variety of
information on Knowledge Discovery in Databases.  An additional entry
is being established in this server which pointers to a list of KDD
relevant projects.

If you are working in a KDD project, have already installed a WWW homepage
on your project, and agree that your project is being included in this
list, please send an email to Willi Kloesgen (kloesgen@gmde.de), with copy to 
kdd@gte.com with the following entries for your project:

- institution
- project name
- 3 line description of the project
- pointer to your homepage.
