The prospectus (Full text ,sorry in Japanese)

This conference is for all developers and support engineers of ISPs. They will be able to make their skill up by not only for our program but their discussion each other with face by face. Usually, engineers cannot make their time enoughly to learn and discuss with other company's people. Therefore we choose Nagano for the place because this is isolated from their company. And whole one night also help their much discussion.
