Subject: FW: [announce] SECOND ANNUAL OASIS SYMPOSIUM - THE FUTURE OF XML VOCABULARIES
We are planning to hold a face-to-face in conjunction with the OASIS Symposium, and have a meeting room reserved for two days. This will be a good opportunity for us to look at the Technical Notes we have been working on, and possibly identify and outline any additional ones. We will also be looking at our next steps for the specs (perhaps they will be in the OASIS voting stage by then!). In the next few weeks we should fill out the agenda so that we maximize the work that we can accomplish in the face-to-face. Please send me additional agenda ideas. For example, do we want to meet with some of the other TCs that will be holding F2F meetings? Please let me know if you are going to be able to attend, and get your reservations as soon as possible! (Several of you have already let me know you will be attending - thanks!)
