The organizers of the XML 2007 conference (IdeaAlliance) have graciously agreed to add a "featured evening event" on XForms to the official program. On behalf of the W3C Forms working group, and I am making the arrangements for this event, which is anticipated to be scheduled on Monday Dec. 3rd from 7:30-9:30. The theme of this special session is "XForms: End to End XML". There will be a 30 minute keynote (speaker to be announced at a later time), and there are also six slots for a 15-minute presentation (12 minutes to present plus 3 minutes for questions and speaker switching). This call for interest statements pertains to the six 15 minute speaking slots. We request a statement of interest in presenting from members of the Forms community no later than Friday, July 20, 2007. The statement should include a proposed title and a paragraph describing the proposed content of the talk. Statements of interest should be sent in response to this email. Talks are desired that stress the business/customer impact of XForms in addition to showing important technical advancements for XForms. Proposals for talks that include a software demonstration will be weighted more heavily. The topic of "End to End XML" can be interpreted in a fairly broad manner in your proposal. For example, presentations could deal with various aspects in the lifecycle of a forms application, such as design time, run-time behaviors, interactions with the server-side, or experiences with deployment on mobile devices and current browsers. Presentations could discuss issues related to particular vertical industries, such as government, financial, insurance, supply chain/manufacturing, and healthcare. Many further possibilities exist, as the main criteria used in selection will be strength of business impact, technical innovation or both. We look forward to hearing from you. Thanks, John M.
