ANNOUNCE: XML and Localization Seminar in Santa Clara, CA

14 November 2001 - 8:30 am-4:15 pm
Presenter: Yves Savourel
Cost: $795 reduced rates available for more than 1 registration

The seminar will look at XML from the localization viewpoint: as a format
to store translatable material, as well as a format localizers can
take advantage of to improve their processes. An overview of the
basic facets of XML and its related technologies, underlining the
internationalization aspects will be included. Yves will present
guidelines to create XML vocabularies and to author XML documents
with localization in mind. He will illustrate how to implement
re-usability,localization directives, as well as various some of the
other advantages XML can offer. Localizing XML documents and
interfaces will be covered by looking at the various current
solutions, addressing some of their implementation issues and examining
how to take advantage of interoperability to create alternate efficient
processes. The class will also delve into the different existing
localization-related formats, it will look more especially at XLIFF and
how to take advantage of it. All parts of the seminar will be illustrated
by many concrete examples, and some hand-on exercises.

ANNOUNCE: Camtasia lets you be everywhere at once!

Even if your staff can't be everywhere at once, Camtasia can. Train by
recording your screen, narrating your video, annotating and sharing
worldwide. Utilize Pack and Show, which makes your movies easily
accessible to your viewers - it converts Camtasia movies into an
executable file so users can easily install the TechSmith codec to view
the movie at the same high resolution you saw when recording the video.
No special software required!
