Re: OASIS TC presentations at Orlando XML conference

[Lauren Wood <lauren@softquad.com>]

As Karl wrote, the XML 2001 planning committee recognizes how valuable the work 
being done at OASIS is, and I'd like to encourage you all to put in proposals on 
the conference web site (http://www.xmlconference.org). All you need at this stage 
is an abstract of no more than 500 words that can be passed on to the reviewers; 
the full papers won't be required until October 15.


Our idea is to group the presentations by area of interest, so for example, core 
technology work will be presented in the core technology track, no matter where it 
was done. This way attendees at the conference can hear more detail about what 
interests them.

Some of you might not wish to fill an entire 45-minute presentation; in that case, 
please see if you can join forces with another TC doing related work, and put in a 
joint proposal.

Product demo proposals aren't due until October 1; other proposals are due on 
Saturday June 30th. If you really can't make it by then (I know, it's only two 
days away), but want to put in a proposal, please send me email.

regards,

Lauren
