Bill Gates is going to be in Switzerland for the ITU
Telecom World 2003 conference in Geneva in October. We were able to get him for
a talk to a group of invited software architects during this time.
I have the honor to start the event with a one hour talk on the current status of
Web services, giving a roundup of the work done by WS-I including
Basic Profiles and GXA and introducing Web service enhancements 1 and 2, the current
implementation of these SOAP protocol enhancements by Microsoft. After that, Bill
will speak about the future of Web services and we will conclude the event with
a Q and A session where I will ask Bill the questions that were collected from the
audience and submitted to 00001001.ch by the
developer community. The event will btw. be broadcast on 00001001.ch as
a web cast.
Thinking of this event makes me a little nervous. Need to get prepared asap..!
