1. Gene Spafford announced himself that he went on a "speaking tour" in Europe.
2. He was announced here in France to hold a conference at INRIA
Rocquencourt, Paris, on Sept. 27.

It seems most likely to me that this conf is part of his "speaking
tour", and hence the article posted in his name most probably is a forgery.
