ANNOUNCEMENT: W3C Web Services Addressing Interoperability Event

[ This is a draft announcement; please make any comments by EOB  
Pacific time today ]

The W3C Web Services Addressing Working Group plans to hold an  
Interoperability Event to test the Web Services Addressing family of  
W3C Technical Reports in January 2006, and invites participation from  
interested parties who have an implementation of one or more of the  
following specifications;

   - Web Services Addressing 1.0 - Core, 2005-08-17 Candidate  
Recommendation [1]
   - Web Services Addressing 1.0 - SOAP Binding, 2005-08-17 Candidate  
Recommendation [2]
   - Web Services Addressing 1.0 - WSDL Binding Editors' Draft) [3]

* Technical Plans and Requirements

Testing will focus on satisfying the Candidate Recommendation  
criteria for the Core and SOAP Binding documents, as expressed in the  
Test Suite [4]. If time permits, additional testing may take place.

It is expected that you will bring a laptop computer capable of  
networking wirelessly using 802.11b (preferred) or through Ethernet,  
with an instance of your implementation ready for testing.

Interested parties should join the public-ws-addressing-tests@w3.org  
mailing list [5], where the test plan and other specifics will be  
discussed. Note that testing may take place against subsequent  
revisions to the documents, and that the test suite is not yet final.

* Logistics

The event will take place at the Opus Hotel [6] in Vancouver, BC  
Canada on January 17th and 18th, 2006 from 9am until 5pm each day.  
Note that a special rate is available at the hotel; more information
