Subject:   XTech 2000: Call for Papers and Tutorials

Together with my co-chairs, Jon Bosak and Tim Bray, I would like to invite the members of xml-dev to submit proposals for papers and tutorials at the XTech 2000 conference, which will be held from February 27 to 2 March 2000 in San Jose, CA.

XTech is sponsored by the GCA and is the major west-coast XML conference: it has a technical (rather than marketing) focus, and it is an excellent place for introducing or debating new ideas and technologies. For more information about the conference, please see:

http://www.gca.org/attend/2000_conferences/xtech_2000/.

Note that the submission deadline of November 30 on the Web page is incorrect (we'll fix it ASAP); the deadline for both paper and tutorial proposals is December 8, 1999, with notification by December 30, 1999.
