Is there anyone out there interested in forming a birds of a 
feather group at SIGCHI (San Fran, April 15) on the topic:

	Adaptive (and intelligent) interfaces as a vehicle
	for personalization.

I'm personally interested in pursuing a synthesis of explicit and
automatic user modeling techniques for enhancing personalization of
the interface. Although I have an implementation in mind, I would
like to step back from specifics and concentrate on high level
models of user activity. (A good example of this process is 
in the October '84 issue of Int. J. of Man-Machine studies,
articles by Norman, Rissland and Croft).

Please reply ASAP. If there is enough interest, I'll try to set it up.
By the way, I've never set up a birds-of-a-feather group before. If
there are others out there who feel that they could lead this topic,
please say so.
