relational, etc.) to show us their relative merits in supporting document-type
information. He will discuss the relationships and dependencies between
document and database technologies and the roles that standards such as SGML,
SQL, and CORBA play in building information management systems.
For the vendor demonstration, Sebastian will show us Texcel's Information
Manager(TM) products. Information Manager is a standards-based set of document
management applications built around a central document repository. It
