The Rocky Mountain SGML Entity will hold an introductory meeting 
at the Cherry Creek Inn in Denver on Thursday, September 17 at 
5:30. There is no fee to attend. It will be held in conjunction 
with STC (Society for Technical Communiations). Users, vendors 
and others interested are invited. The group has been formed as a 
Coloardo regional chapter of the International SGML Users' Group, 
an organized membership of people who implement and use SGML. Its 
creation is intended to allow SGML users to meet to discuss 
implementation and use of the standard, participate in vendor 
demonstrations and commune with fellow users.

SGML is an acronym for Standard Generalized Markup Language. An 
international standard for the markup of text and other data, it 
allows for flexible, inter-changeable documents. SGML compliance 
is becoming a requirement for many organizations. The Department 
of Defense and all of its contractors have an SGML mandate as 
part of the CALS (Computer-aided Acquisition and Logistics 
Support) initiative. SGML proves to benefit organizations because 
it provides cost-effective solutions to a wide range of 
publishing problems.
