TC Meeting at OASIS Symposium

["Drummond Reed" <drummond.reed@cordance.net>]

XDI TC Members:

I know the list has been very quiet as many of us are currently focused on
implementing the XRI 2.0 infrastructure necessary to begin offering
interoperable XDI data sharing service. However I need to bring up one
timely topic we need to discuss.

We had decided late last year that we would try to hold a f2f at the OASIS
Symposium in the second week of May. That's now just six weeks away as shown
by Jane Harnad's reminder email below.

So we need to decide if this is still something we'd like to do given the
hiatus we've been on while implementing XRI 2.0.

Please post back with your thoughts on whether you'd be able to attend.

Importance: High

Hello Drummond,

I am following up on the enclosed note that I sent out regarding your
upcoming meeting during the Symposium.  Please confirm the details as soon
as possible. If you could also confirm your meeting times - that would be
great. I am planning to post all the schedule of meetings as soon as that
information it confirmed.  Also, I wondered if you might be willing to post
the event on your TC homepage - highlighting of course your TC meeting.
Enclosed are a couple brief details that you might consider posting. 
Thanks, Jane

EVENT OVERVIEW:

OASIS Symposium 2006 : The Meeting of Interoperability
9-12 May - San Francisco, CA
http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium_2006/index.php

Seamless, out-of-the-box interoperability has been the holy grail motivating
most of the standardization initiatives. Everyone agrees that
interoperability is key, yet different definitions of the solution abound.
The OASIS Symposium brings together leaders in industry and government to
explore the various facets of interoperability, their dependencies, enabling
technologies, supporting standards, practices and opportunities for
improvement. This year's event includes: business and technical sessions,
complimentary tutorials and workshops, OASIS Technical Committee meetings,
OASIS TC updates, OASIS Annual General Member meeting, poster presentations,
table-top exhibits, and more.
