Dear Steering Committee,
IBM is planning a set of half-day seminars
through the remainder of 2008 to present and promote SCA/SDO technology
from a vendor-neutral viewpoint in order to raise market awareness of these
technologies. We are not promoting IBM products as part of this initiative,
although we will use Tuscany as it's one of the few SCA runtime offerings
available today. The initiative comes from Karla Norsworthy's Standards
organization, not WebSphere's marketing organization, so I emphasize: it
is vendor-neutral. The seminars will be presented by Doug Tidwell, who
also spoke about SCA at JavaOne
this year.
The first 3 seminars will be in China
at the end of this month. Doug intends to continue in Europe & the
USA in ~ October to December. Current details are at: <http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/offers/techbriefings/details/scasdo.html>.
We are interested in making the Europe/USA
seminars either multi-vendor, or even OASIS Open CSA supported, if the
interest exists. We're happy to explore any option in line with objectives
of promoting the technologies, not vendor products. With greater multi-vendor
support, we could expand this initiative and reach even more developers.
Another benefit may be to encourage more real end-users to join the TCs
that will commence in September.
If there is no interest, then so be
it; IBM will continue a more limited program. If there is interest in doing
this as a multi-vendor, or an Open CSA backed program, please let me know
and we can commence some planning, or initiate an adoption sub-committee;
whatever is practical in line with OASIS guidelines.....
