[ANN] XSLT-UK 01 Announce. The first XSLT-UK conference will take place in the UK, Sunday and Monday, 8-9 April 2001 in Keble College, Oxford, England. This is a two day event focussed on technical development and use of XSLT, XPATH and XSL. XSLT Training. Ken Holman from Cranesoft will be presenting a full two day XSLT training session immediately prior to the conference, again in Oxford, on the 6th and 7th, for those wishing to get up to speed in this new technology. Since this will be restricted to the first 50 places, please ensure you register early. This is to be the first of its kind in the UK, covering this fast developing field, and will have a technical focus for users and implementors. In other words, this is a conference by developers and users, for developers and users. Expect interesting presentations on a range of XSL related topics from some of the worlds leaders in this technology. If you come wearing a suit we won't actually turn you away, but we don't need your business so badly that we're willing to lower the level of discourse. Outline Programme After a brief outline of the technology, approaches to XSLT will be covered, including the switch from procedural programming, and some design patterns for XSLT. This is followed by presentations on middleware usage, one of todays hot homes for XSLT. Example applications of XSLT will be presented, followed by an introduction to XSL-FO, showing the potential of this working draft in the area of high specification layout for paper and the web. A presenters panel will be aligned to answer any of your questions at the end of day 2. Who should attend? Implementors, developers and users. Duration? It will be a full two days providing a chance to meet the names on the XSL list and put a face to them! You will have a chance to ask your questions at the experts panel session. Location? We have booked accommodation and conference facilities at the historic Keble College, Oxford, within easy reach of London's Heathrow Airport Speakers. The speakers will include those names from the XSLT list at Mulberrytech.com who can answer all the questions, and even have techniques named after them! The following speakers have indicated their intention to participate: David Carlisle, Ken Holman, Tom Kaiser, Mike Kay, Steve Muench, Arved Sandstrom and Jenni Tennison. If you would still like to speak at this event, please submit an outline paper covering the topic and length by 20 November 2000, there may still be room for you. All papers will be acknowledged.
