MarkLogic® Community

For the second year in a row, MarkLogic is very excited to be sponsoring XML Prague, which will take place March 26 - 27.  This is one of the go-to events for the world-wide XML community.  The themes this year are focused on "Web and XML" (from the conference site) :

• XML as new lingua franca for the Web. Why did it never happen?
• HTML 5 and XHTML: breaking-up, coexistence or convergence?
• JSON and XML love-in: how to enable Web Apps and Web Widgets?
• XML Databases role in Web architecture.
• XML and the emerging Semantic Web.
• XML-based formats for electronic books.

A number of MarkLogic folks will be participating, including:

• John Snelson (@jpcs), who is giving a session on Declarative XQuery Rewrites for Profit or Pleasure
• Norm Walsh (@ndw), who is providing an update on the The W3C HTML/XML Task Force
• Jason Hunter (@hunterhacker), who is giving a session on 'A JSON Facade on top of MarkLogic Server'

If you're going, also be on the lookout for a poster for work that Marklogician Eric Hennum has done with Vyacheslav Zholudev of Jacobs University Bremen on XSLT and XQuery tag libraries.  See http://code.google.com/p/xstag/.
