MARCH AGENDA:

Future Meetings:

April, 2002

David Webber, XML Global Technologies, VP Business Development and co-author
              of a recent ebXML book (see http://www.ebxmlbook.com).

       David will present on using XML end-to-end to deploy web based
       business applications. See how to use XML Schema to build forms
       and automatically return structured XML content from the browser
       in a simple low-cost system utilizing XMLSpy's toolset combined
       with XML Globals GoXML DB and XQuery syntax support. XML Global's
       native XML database product is the first to market with implementation
       of the W3C XQuery syntax in both a desktop and server product suite.

	The presentation will be focused on the technical details and
	show how XML is used end-to-end to enable rapid application
        development. Also discussed will be the business use model for
	an XML database alongside traditional SQL relational storage
	and the ability to use the GoXML Transform tool to bridge between
	the two worlds.
