Re: [wsrp] Fwd: RE: Call for Speakers-Sybold SF 2003/Comdex Las Vegas 2003

[Rich Thompson <richt2@us.ibm.com>]

I agree that this would be a good place
to get the WSRP message out. Is there anyone already planning to attend
Comdex that would be available to make such a presentation? Another alternative
would be if a West Coast member would be willing to attend Comdex and make
the presentation. Any takers?

As an aside, the proposal for XML2003
in Philly has now been accepted.

Hi Folks,

I recommend, especially to Rich and those of you who will have 
considerable interest in educating the public about WSRP v1.0 by the 
time of Comdex in Las Vegas in November, that you visit thefollowing 
url from  Bill Cullifer's  message below.

http://www.joinwow.org/wowevents/

This Call for Speakers for Comdex has a deadline for submissions of 
July 24, 2003. I apologize for the short deadline, but I was unaware 
that the topics for Comdex were as focused on Web Services as they 
are, and only discovered this today. The Call for Speakers has many 
topics of specific interest in regard to Web Services. There is 
little doubt that there will be presentation materials that will have 
been developed over the course of producing an updated Primer which 
can be made available to a volunteer to represent the specification 
we have developed.

I am not volunteering myself, but I suspect the someone from our will.

Ciao,
Rex
