A.11 Where do I find more information about XML?
Online, there's the XML Specification
and the ancillary documentation available from the W3C; Robin Cover's SGML/XML Web
pages with an extensive list of online reference
material and links to software; and a summary and
condensed
FAQ
from Tim Bray; and thousands of reference resources
available by typing ‘xml’ into Google or other
search engine.
For offline resources, see the lists of books, articles, and software for XML in Robin Cover's SGML and XML Web pages. That site should always be your first port of call.
The events listed below are the ones I have been told about. Please mail me if you come across others: there are many other XML events around the world, and most of them are announced on the mailing lists and newsgroups.
The Balisage conference (the principal technical meeting, which has taken over from Extreme Markup) will be in Montréal on 3rd–6th August 2010.
There is also a pre-conference symposium on XML for the Long Haul: Issues in the Long-term preservation of XML on August 2nd.
The 2010 annual XML Summer School, organised by Eleven Informatics, will be held in St Edmund Hall, Oxford on 5th–10th September 2010.
XML 2010 (run by IDEAlliance, formerly the GCA) is themed ‘XML Practioner and Publisher’ and will be in Philadelphia in October.
The XTech Conference appears to have sunk without trace: see Balisage and the XML Summer School above instead.
