Dear Colleague,

thank you for attending the conference Nearrings and Nearfields 03.
It was a pleasure to have you all here in Hamburg.

Quite a few of you have indicated to submit papers to the proceedings of the conference.

We plan to set a deadline for submission in mid December 03. Please feel free to submit your work anytime before.

To facilitate processing, we kindly ask authors to follow the rules below:

• please use LaTeX2e
• please avoid the use of macros whenever possible
• please use as little \usepackage{whatever} as possible
• please use \maketitle and \section.

As soon as we know the settings from the publisher, we'll provide a style-file which makes nice section headlines and takes care of formatting. If you follow our rules, it will not cause an excessive amount of work to ajust your paper.

Thank you for your cooperation.

On behalf of the organizing committee.
Best Regards

Hubert Kiechle
