Is anyone planning to submit a proposal for SOA-RM for the upcoming
Symposium? Apologies if we've already discussed this (I recall rumblings on it
several weeks ago)

CALL
FOR SPONSORS
Several sponsorship
opportunities are available at this year’s Symposium. OASIS relies on its
event sponsorship to provide funding necessary to maintain affordable meeting
fees, ensuring the widest possible level of participation. OASIS Event
Sponsors also underwrite the cost of OASIS Technical Committee meetings,
allowing members to collaborate face-to-face and Committees to interact with one
another. We are offering again this year - two types of sponsorship,
including a Dual Event Sponsorship and an Event Reception Sponsorship.
Details including the benefits for each sponsorship package may be found at: http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium_2006/sponsorship.php.
If you are able to
support OASIS as a Sponsor, please contact Peter Roden – or
complete the online OASIS Event Sponsorship Request Form - http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium_2006/sponsorship.php
OTHER
EVENTS HAPPENING AT THE SYMPOSIUM
OASIS
Technical Committee Meetings
OASIS Technical
Committees are invited to hold face-to-face meetings in conjunction with the
OASIS Symposium. OASIS will provide rooms at the hotel on 10, 11, and 12 of May
for TC meetings. In order to assure availability, TC Chairs must reserve their
space as soon as possible using the online meeting space reservation form found
at: http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium_2006/tc_meetings.php
OASIS
Annual General Member Meeting (AGM)
The OASIS Annual General
Member Meeting (AGM) will be held at the Symposium. This once-a-year event
provides a members-only opportunity to review and respond to a
state-of-the-union address presented by the OASIS Board of Directors. The AGM
will be followed by an evening reception offering the perfect place to network
with OASIS members, directors, and staff.
OASIS
TC Lightning Rounds
The OASIS Symposium will
again feature an overview of the TCs, by the TCs. It promises to be a great
opportunity to learn what the TCs are accomplishing, find out the status of
related work, provide input, identify areas for cross-TC communication, and
build support. Each OASIS Committee will be asked to designate one
representative to deliver a two-three minute presentation on its work. Slides
will be compiled and posted on the OASIS site following the
event.
Symposium
Book Table
There is a growing body
of books that feature technical and executive-level information on OASIS
Standards and specifications. The Symposium Book Table will showcase these books
at a display in the registration area. This is not a book sale, but an
opportunity to give attendees a first-hand look at the range of available
titles. A handout listing all books, including information on purchasing
options, will be provided. Books will be on display during the Symposium and
raffled off to attendees at the reception. Authors, publishers, or
collectors interested in donating books should contact by
10 April 2006.
