The XML 2005 schedule is out. I see that Norm Walsh has posted his planned presentation choices, so here are mine as well. That's the problem with big conferences with parallel sessions, there is always stuff you have to miss out on. This year, there's just a lot of great talks at XML 2005. In particular, I'm going to miss some presentations by people I know and people who I respect (those are not exclusive groups, by the way). Unfortunately, it's business, so I have to choose the things that I think will most benefit my consulting work. That said, I'm sure I will make a few changes, not the least because I don't yet know which sessions I will be chairing (I do reviewing and chairing for the conference).
