RE: Call for Nominations - meetings

["Lynda VanVleet" <lvanvleet@classiq.com>]

I have no facilities to sponsor teleconferences but would prefer only two
meetings on the East coast.  Perhaps we could have a West coast meeting at a
conference if we need more. I do have a lot of friends and relatives in DC
area so I can attend more if necessary.
Sorry I have been uncommunicative but we have three products being
introduced next month and just made 3 big sales in Europe and there are only
7 of us. Yada, yada ...
Anyway, my company will donate a testing harness to the committee for its
use.  Our testing software has the advantages of browsing capabilities, a
test case repository, suites of test cases, reporting, etc.
(http://wwww.classiq.com/).  We found it fairly easy (less than a week
development time) to incorporate component testing for applications that
send XML over HTTP either in EAI or as individual applications and XML
application simulation into our tool.  Our solution for Suns Forte Fusion is
released in June.  We have no plans to sell XSLT conformance certification
and will probably volunteer our services in some way for publicity or as an
easy way to test our web portal testing technology later this year.
Again, I am naive about XSLT so you can supply guidance on how our tool can
be used for the committees efforts.

I agree, but we don't have anyone yet to sponsor the teleconferences.

Folks, please talk to your management to see if anyone is willing to help
us with the teleconference.

What is your opinion about having only two official meetings?  We could
launch June 5 and then meet again in December at XML'2000 ... we could
shoot for a draft by December and a final for XTech next year, perhaps.

I don't think we need a lot of face-to-face because once we launch to our
target, we just work away ... I don't think there are a lot of voting
decisions to be made.

Please share your thoughts!
