Abstract

Hypertext II was the major conference in Europe this year in the hypertext field and attracted 200 participants. Actually it had "attracted" many more who were just not there but had been turned away because the organizers had committed the same mistake as the planners of the Hypertext'87 conference in North Carolina and placed the conference in a location which would only hold 200 people. Their original assumption was that a hypertext conference in the UK might attract 100 participants, but that was the underestimate of the year. Hypertext is hot these days.
