Once again I'm chairing the XML track at Software Development 2002 East in Boston this November 18-22. The call for papers is now live: http://www.cmpevents.com/SDxE/default.asp?option=14&V=1&CPid=16 Tracks include .NET Programming, C++, Java Programming, Project Management, Requirements & Analysis, Scripting Languages, Web Services, Wireless, and XML, though I'm only personally invoked with the XML track. Session types include 90 minute classes, full and half-day tutorials, panels, roundtables, brown bag case studies, birds-of-a-feather gatherings and keynotes. The deadline for submitting abstracts is this Friday, May 10, 2002. For the XML track, I try to select a broad range of tutorial-focused sessions that cover specific technologies. For example, Intro to Schemas, Intro to XSLT, Overview of XML Security, DOM for Java programmers, etc. The key idea is that the session should be a 90-minute to full-day introduction and how-to session about some specific XML technology that's reasonably well-cooked and can be used today. We find that our audience likes very practical sessions and is not as receptive to bleeding edge technologies (e.g. DOM Level 3, XSLT2) and advanced, research level presentations (e.g. Designing RDF Metadata, Optimization Schemes for XSLT, SOAP vs. REST). Our audience tends to be Java and C++ professionals who are using some XML rather than fulltime XML hackers. For the XML track, we are especially interested in 90-minute and half-day sessions. If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me. -- +-----------------------+------------------------+-------------------+ | Elliotte Rusty Harold | elharo@m... | Writer/Programmer | +-----------------------+------------------------+-------------------+ | The XML Bible, 2nd Edition (Hungry Minds, 2001) | | http://www.cafeconleche.org/books/bible2/ | | http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0764547607/cafeaulaitA/ | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Read Cafe au Lait for Java News: http://www.cafeaulait.org/ | | Read Cafe con Leche for XML News: http://www.cafeconleche.org/ | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+
