At the end of May the group officially changed its name from SGES to SGAI, the British Computer Society Specialist Group on Artificial Intelligence. It is likely that both names will remain in use for some time. The Group's organising committee believes that the new name much better reflects the wide scope of our activities, in particular - the content of our annual conferences in Cambridge in December - the annual competitions for 'Progress Towards Machine Intelligence' - our hosting of the annual UK CBR workshop series - the 'SGAI International Workshop' series, the next of which will be on Knowledge Discovery in April 2003 - our involvement in ECCAI - and, not least, our role in organizing the major AI conference IJCAI-2005. There are no plans to rename our list server AI-SGES at present. Our forthcoming annual conference will retain the name ES2002, but the series will be renamed AI-2003 etc. from next year onwards.
