OSLC Connect at the ALM Forum

[Sean Kennedy <seanpk@ca.ibm.com>]

Hello OSLC Member Section supporters,

As was announced in November [1], the first "OSLC Connect" event [2] is to take place at the ALM Forum [3] in Seattle, WA, April 1-3.

The "super early bird" discount has been extended to January 15, and OASIS OSLC members can get an addition $300 discount by using the code "OSLCCONNECT".

While more news is to follow, 3 talks from OSLC community members have already been confirmed for "Lifecycle Architecture & Integration" track [4]:
1. "Better Integration through Open Interfaces" by Steve Speicher of IBM
2. "Link, not Synch!" by Arthur Ryman of IBM
3. "PROMCODE: An Open Platform for Large-Scale Contracted Software Delivery in Software Supply Chains" by Mikio Aoyama of Nanzan University

Two lightning sessions have also been confirmed for that track:
1. "Facilitating Stockdale: Confronting and Overcoming the Brutal Facts of Continuous Improvement" by Sean Kennedy of IBM
2. "Integration Principles and Reality" by Ludmila Ohlsson of Ericsson

Hopefully we'll see you there.
