Re: [cgmo-webcgm] ideas for XTech 2005?

[Lofton Henderson <lofton@rockynet.com>]

Benoit, are you thinking of a paper specifically on "What's new in WebCGM 
2.0"?  (I.e., a discussion of 2.0, DOM, XCF, etc).  Or something else, 
e.g., specific applications of 2.0?

It sounds like everyone agrees that at least one proposal would be timely 
-- the general purpose "what's-new in WebCGM".  Given that Friday is the 
deadline, we probably can't wait for Dieter.  I would suggest that we take 
a cut at a proposal, and submit it with placeholder names, e.g., Dieter and 
me.  Or any pair of us.  We can juggle it later.

Looking here,
http://www.xtech-conference.org/2005/tracks.asp ,
does anyone else has ideas for other proposals?  Case studies on WebCGM in 
compound documents?  Etc.  Should we consider an Interop Demo of some 
sort?  (Will we have enough fairly complete implementations?)

Dave, what about an angle from ATA and/or AECMA?  Would cascading profiles 
just be a detail in the general what's-new talk?

-Lofton.
