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.
