    KDD Cup 2000 will be the Fourth International Knowledge Discovery
    and Data Mining Tools Competition, held in conjunction with KDD-2000.

    This year's domain contains clickstream and purchase data from
    Gazelle.com, a legwear and legcare web retailer. You are required
    to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) in order to receive a
    password to access the data. The top three winners will be expected
    to give a short talk at KDD-2000.

    We will have two question periods during the competition (the first
    runs from 5/20 - 5/30). During these question periods, you may ask
    technical questions or business questions, similar to real-life
    interaction with a real client.

    The data will be available as of 5/20. It is crucial that you sign
    the NDA as soon as possible in order to utilize the first question
    period.

    Please direct all questions to: kddcup2000@bluemartini.com
