geneva" size="2"><big>Papers are invited dealing with the
"Papuan" (ie. non-Austronesian) languages spoken in
eastern Indonesia, the greater New Guinea region, and the
Solomon Islands. Equally welcome are papers concerned with
the Austronesian languages spoken in the same areas,
including the contact varieties of Malay, as well as Tok
Pisin and Solomon Islands Pidgin. Papers may be in any of
the subfields of linguistics, and may represent variegated
approaches and diverse theoretical persuasions. Papers are
to be delivered in English</big></font></big></font>.
