Nose to the (Lava) Grindstone

Matt Arnold and Sarah O'Keefe will be attending LavaCon next week. Sarah will offer two presentations on Wednesday:

• Building a Business Case for XML
• Creating User-Specific Online Documentation Using XML

Despite the venue, Matt and Sarah assure the rest of us that they will be "working hard." We're sure that setting up the booth on the beach will be hard work.

Please stop by if you're at the conference, or email us with any sightings of AWOL Scriptorium staff.
