The conference will feature a special session on GRAMMATICAL
INTERFACES, exploring the interaction of parts of the sign that encode

submitted papers and talks by a number of invited speakers, including:

- Ewan Klein
- Daniele Godard
- Anne Abeille

Details of other invited speakers, both for the special session and
the main session, will be published at the HPSG-99 website as soon as
they become available.
