An international Algebraic Topology conference is planned for the last week of June 2005 (June 21 - 25, 2001). The conference will take place on the Isle of Skye - a scenic island off the west coast of Scotland.

The emphasis will be on the emerging role of algebraic toplogy in physics and finite group theory, but the scope of the conference is broad, welcoming any new work in algebraic topology. We plan to have several plenary speakers as well as contributed talks, with exact numbers to be determined later. Currently, the following have agreed to give a plenary talk:

• Gregory Arone (Virginia)
• Nils Baas (Trondheim)
• Dave Benson (Georgia)
• Michael Ching (MIT)
• Ralph Cohen (Stanford)
• Kathryn Hess (EPFL)
• Nitu Kitchloo (UC San Diego)
• Peter Kropholler (Glasgow)
• Andrey Lazarev (Bristol)
• Markus Linckelmann (Ohio State)

  ... And everyone remained upright despite the whisky tasting!
