Subject: [OASIS members] OASIS Symposium Update 



OASIS Symposium and Member Plenary Update
26-29 April 2004
New Orleans Marriott http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium/

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Program

The Symposium's Call for Presentations closed on 9 Feb. Members of the
OASIS TAB were overwhelmed by the quality and quantity of presentations
submitted and are now dealing with the very difficult task of selection.
Thanks to all who contributed abstracts. Look for Program details soon.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Keynotes

Two very exciting keynotes will be featured at the Symposium.

On Monday, a major user perspective will be offered by William Stangel,
Sr. VP and Enterprise Architect for Fidelity Investments Systems
Company, part of the largest mutual fund company in the United States,
the No. 1 provider of workplace retirement savings plans, and a leading
online brokerage firm.

On Tuesday, Thomas Koulopoulos, president and co-founder of the Delphi
Group technology management and advisory firm, will speak on 'Standards
and the Business of Uncertainty.' Tom will lay out the tenets of
technological and practical survival in the new world of uncertainty and
investigate how standards provide the foundation for agility and change.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Sponsors

Adobe, IBM, and Sun Microsystems have graciously provided funding in
support of the OASIS Symposium. Their sponsorship goes a long way to
ensure the success of the event and keep the meeting registration fee
affordable for all members. A variety of Symposium sponsorship
opportunities are still available. Contact dee.schur@oasis-open.org for
details.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
TC Meetings

Currently, 13 OASIS TCs have scheduled face-to-face meetings following
the
Symposium:
  OASIS ebXML Messaging TC
  OASIS ebXML Registry TC
  OASIS ebXML CPPA TC
  OASIS ebXML IIC TC
  OASIS WSRM TC
  OASIS LegalXML Electronic Court Filing TC
  OASIS LegalXML Integrated Justice TC
  OASIS Emergency Management TC
  OASIS WS-CAF TC
  OASIS CAM TC
  OASIS XDI TC
  OASIS WSDM TC
  OASIS XACML TC

Three other TCs are on a waiting list.*
  OASIS ebXML BP TC
  OASIS LegalXML Legislative TC
  OASIS FWSI TC

*OASIS is unable to secure additional meeting rooms until we fill and
expand our current sleeping room block at the hotel. Reserving your room
at the Marriot will make it possible for all interested TCs to meet in
New Orleans.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Registration
Registration is required for both the Symposium and OASIS TC meetings.
For the Symposium only, a meeting fee of 465 USD (265 USD for OASIS
members) will be charged to cover the cost of facilities and meals.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Hotel Reservations

Thanks to all who have already made hotel reservations with the
Marriott. Early registration is a tremendous help in planning the event
and enabling OASIS staff to secure meeting space for TCs. We urge
everyone to make plans as soon as possible. Anyone experiencing
difficulty reserving under the OASIS room block should contact
dee.schur@oasis-open.org immediately.
