After the demise of XML DevCon's conference producer, it became important to
me to work on a replacement event that would meet or exceed that standard
for content. There wasn't time to put something together for 2001, but
NextWare will run in May 2002. NextWare Spring 2002 is an XML and Web
services event from Penton Media (the producers of Internet World).
