DocTrain East kicks off next Wednesday, October 29. Scriptorium will be well-represented; Simon Bate is delivering a day-long workshop, Authoring and Publishing with XMetaL and DITA. If you have signed up for this workshop, expect details on the software you need in the next 24 hours or so. If you don't hear from Simon, please contact DocTrain to make sure that you are registered for the event.
Thursday morning (October 30), Simon will deliver a session comparing DITA support in XMetaL and FrameMaker. Meanwhile, Matt Arnold will be camped out in the trade show area. We're bringing tons of goodies, including the usual chocolate, so be sure to stop by and say hello. We're also doing several giveaways. (Yes, we will bribe you to visit us. Those trade shows can get really tedious...)
The following week, Matt and I will be attending tekom/tcworld in Wiesbaden, Germany. At this conference, I'll be doing a workshop on XSL and a presentation on Web 2.0 and technical communication. Both are on Thursday. Instead of bringing coals to Newcastle (and taking up precious space in our limited baggage), we'll be picking up chocolate for our booth at a local (and excellent) shop. I visited Kunder last year and, as usual, spent way too much. (Fair warning, they don't take U.S. credit cards, so bring euros. Lots of euros.)
Again, please stop by the booth and visit if you're at the conference.
tekom ends on Friday (November 7), but we're staying until Sunday morning to take advantage of cheaper airfare. Saturday, I'm planning a field trip to Bingen am Rhein, which has connections to the medieval Hildegard von Bingen. We can reach Bingen by train in about an hour. If you're interested in going, leave me a comment or send email and I'll attempt to coordinate.
