Date:

The World OS will be here soon.  Most of it has already been built.
What remains to be done is equip XML with interpreters and debug the
cryptographic infrastructure.

Elliotte Rusty Harold is a world renowned XML expert.  His latest book on
XML is huge and looks to be even better than his last.

Subject: XML SIG meeting Tuesday 24 August--Elliotte Rusty Harold

The next meeting of the XML SIG of the Object Developers Group
will be held on Tuesday, August 24, 7-9 p.m., at Goldman Sachs,
125 Broad Street, 19th Floor, Room B. (Please note that this is a
change from our usual location at Prudential Securities. The
Goldman Sachs location is just across Broad Street from our usual
venue at 1 New York Plaza.)

The speaker will be Elliotte Rusty Harold, and the topic will be
XML Linking, concentrating on the latest drafts of the XLink (
http://www.w3.org/TR/xlink ) and XPointer (
http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xptr ) specifications.

Elliotte Rusty Harold ( http://www.macfaq.com/personal.html ) is
the author of  _XML: Extensible Markup Language_ (
http://metalab.unc.edu/xml/books/xml/ ) and the newly-published
_The XML Bible_ ( http://metalab.unc.edu/xml/books/bible/ ), and
is well-known for his Cafe con Leche compendium of XML news and
resources ( http://metalab.unc.edu/xml/ ). His presentation to the
SIG will cover a crucial (and too long neglected) component of the
XML family of standards. Those who aim to be well-prepared for
this session might review two chapters of _The XML Bible_ posted
at  http://metalab.unc.edu/xml/books/bible/updates/16.html and
http://metalab.unc.edu/xml/books/bible/updates/17.html .

To register for this session, please send a request by email
direct to me ·············@fiduciary.com. You will receive a
confirmation by return email.

FYI, there will be a meeting of the XML SIG in the week of
September 27, exact date, topic, speaker and location to be
announced. The October meeting will be on the 18th (our usual
Monday) at Prudential Securities, 7-9 p.m., with Bob DuCharme
speaking on the W3C Schema Proposal. Announcements, and
instructions for reserving places,  will be sent closer to the
dates of these meetings.

Thank you,

Walter Perry
XML SIG Leader
