   I.  SwarmFest '97 Update

       A.  T-Shirts!

   Hey Folks!

   We are going to order up a bunch of Swarm T-shirts for the
SwarmFest.  They will carry the Swarm Logo, as seen on the Official
Swarm Web Pages!  We will have to charge about $12-$15 for them, but
they're pretty cool!

   We'll probably order 50 or so. If you think you might want to buy a
few, please give us an idea of how many you might want and what
sizes. We'll probably order mostly L and XL plus a few S for the
larvae out there....

   The Swarm Logo is large on the back, with a roughly pocket
coordinate small swarm-logo on the front.

   Please respond to address@hidden with the subject line
T-Shirts!

       B.  List of Attendees  (this could change)

   This is a preliminary list of attendees.  If you're coming and you
don't see your name here, then that means we missed you.  If you see
your name here and you're not coming, that means we're trying to
cajole you into coming anyway ;-).  Seriously, though, in either case,
please send a note to us.  The names with an Ant by them are presenting.

  II.  User Community Page Additions

   We've added some more links to our User Community page.  Please
check it out and take a look at the type of people using Swarm (most
of whom will be coming to SwarmFest '97).  Those of you to whom I've
linked, please check the wording.  And to anybody who's either using
Swarm or coming to SwarmFest and would like their page listed, please
send a note to <address@hidden>.  Also, a bunch of errors were pointed
out to me by a conscientious Swarm user that have gone undetected for
long enough to make me suspicious about whether or not anyone is 
hitting that page.  They're fixed now, though.


 III.  Documentation for GraphLib Demo, "BankNet"

   Manor Askenazi has been kind enough to generate some documentation
for his BankNet model.  It has been placed on the user community web
page also.


  IV.  Swarm V1.0 Update

   The Swarm version 1.0 is still on schedule and we still expect
it to be released by the end of January (which puts it between this
Pheromone and next week's).  A note announcing its availability will
be posted to swarm-announce.


                              =========

The Swarm Bulletin is created by the members of the Swarm project at
the Santa Fe Institute.  Comments, corrections, and contributions
should be sent to address@hidden
