Extreme Markup Languages 2000

Extreme is a new, highly technical conference concentrating on the evolving abstractions that underlie modern information management solutions, how those abstractions enhance human productivity, and how they are being applied. Abstract and concrete information models, systems built on them, software to exploit them, SGML, XML, XSL, XLink, schemas, topic maps, query languages, and other markup-related topics are in scope for this conference.

Extreme will be a 3.6-day technical conference preceded by two days of tutorials.

Extreme Markup Languages is the successor conference to all of the following GCA conferences:

Markup Technologies
XML Developers Conference
Metastructures
International Markup
HyTime
SGML'XX

Principals of those conferences have now joined forces to offer a single unabashedly hard-core conference as a gathering place for the technically-oriented members of the information interchange community; a place for these people to meet and refresh each other with ideas advice, and camaraderie. The conference is agnostic with respect to commercial and political persuasion. It is passionate about providing a forum where technical ideas can be communicated and explained.
