A few months ago, we (prematurely!) announced the first DCS-NY
meeting. Unfortunately, we had some logistical problems, but we have
finally worked out all the details. Our first meeting will be on
September 8th, at 12:00 noon at the Harvard Club in Manhattan.

If you are already familiar with what DCS-NY is, you can skip to the
the RSVP information located below.

WHAT IS DCS-NY?

As some of you probably know, Robert Hettinga has been running a group
called the Digital Commerce Society of Boston for almost three years.
DCSB meets once a month for lunch at the Harvard Club in Boston to
hear a speaker and discuss the implications of rapidly emerging
internet and cryptographic technologies on finance and commerce --
"Digital Commerce", in short.

Interest has been expressed in starting a similar organization here in
New York. I am therefore pleased to announce the organizational meeting
of the Digital Commerce Society of New York (DCS-NY). We intend to
meet the second Tuesday of each month for lunch, at the Harvard Club
in New York, and conduct meetings much like those of DCSB.

If you are interested in attending our first luncheon meeting, please
follow the directions located below. If you merely wish to be added to
our e-mail meeting announcements list, you may send your e-mail
address to "dcs-ny-rsvp@piermont.com".

PS We would like to thank John McCormack for his invaluable assistance in
procuring the venue for this first meeting.

As this is our first meeting, we had to guess how many attendees we

We are looking forward to seeing you!
