tragic events last week. The new conference dates and venue are:
November 5-8, The Westin Grand, in Washington, D.C. Please visit
our web site for up to the minute changes in the program:

Java & XML Tips & Tricks
Here are five tips for efficiently integrating XML into Java
applications, by Brett McLaughlin, the author of O'Reilly's recently
released "Java and XML, 2nd Edition."

Introduction to Jakarta Struts Framework
In this ONJava.com article, Sue Spielman describes how to use the
Struts framework and JSP to assist in front-end integration for Web
applications. For more on JSP, check out O'Reilly's "Java Servlet
Programming, 2nd Edition."

If you've got a catchy Python slogan, here's your chance to see it on a
T-shirt for the upcoming Python 10 conference--and to win $100 worth
of O'Reilly books. http://www.python10.org/p10-slogan.html
