RDF IG folk at XML 2003?

Hi

When the Semantic Web is older and wiser, I should be 
able to mechanically find out who amongst the 
www-rdf-interest@w3.org readership is planning to attend 
a conference - in this case, XML 2003 in Philadelphia this 
week. In the meantime, I'm reduced to the low tech 
approach: asking. I suspect a long thread of 'me toos' 
might bore those of you who aren't attending, but that 
it'd be handy to have a sense for who is going to be 
there. 

So, for those of you attending some or all of 
the event whose homepage is 
http://www.xmlconference.org/xmlusa/2003/about.asp

...I suggest the following as a procedure: if you're 
attending XML2003 and are happy making that known, 
reply to my mail, copying www-archive@w3.org instead of 
www-rdf-interest@w3.org giving such contact info as 
you care to share (photo URL for recognition, hotel, 
if you're giving a talk/paper/etc). The www-archive 
list is publically archived at 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/ and so 
takes me out of the bottleneck role. If you'd rather 
just let me know offlist that you'll be there, that'd be 
fine of course.


So for eg, my info:
[[
xml2003 info for Dan Brickley
I'll be there mon night thru friday morning. I will be 
contributing to the 'practical rdf' town hall meeting 
on thursday which Norm Walsh is facilitating, see 
http://www.xmlconference.org/xmlusa/2003/thursday.asp

I also hope to take the opportunity to discuss 
the RDF<->XML relationship (re schemas, query etc) with 
various folks... 

Contact info: it looks like I should have access to 
danbri@w3.org email. If online, I will likely be 
realtime-contactable via IRC chat in the #rdfig channel 
on irc.freenode.net (see irc.freenode.net). 

finding me: see homepage http://rdfweb.org/people/danbri/
for blurry mugshot, or [1] for every photo the Semantic 
Web knows I appear in (hmm, gotta put a stop to this SemWeb 
machine, it knows too much...).

See some of you shortly,
