The Rexx Language Association is excited to announce that the 2004 International Rexx Symposium will celebrate the Twenty-fifth Anniversary of the Rexx Language in the beautiful Swabian region of Germany during 2 - 6 May, 2004. In recognition of this significant milestone, the fifteenth annual Rexx Symposium has been extended to four days for the first time.
The Symposium is the only technical conference dedicated to the Rexx family of programming languages, drawing speakers and attendees from around the world. It is the best place to learn valuable Rexx programming techniques, keep up with the latest developments in the Rexx community, and confer with your colleagues, many of whom are luminaries in the field. The Program will feature a wide variety of presentations ranging from tutorial introductions, to real-world practical applications, to research papers describing techniques and features you will be using in the future.
The program schedule represents the best of an overwhelming number of quality presentations offered by the best Rexx practitioners in the world. IBM Fellow and Rexx pater Mike Cowlishaw will give the keynote address on "Twenty-five Years of Rexx -- a Personal View". It promises to offer a unique insight into the conception, development, and behind-the-scenes life of the Rexx language.
As usual, the Sunday before the Symposium will feature free tutorials and a welcome reception. The full Symposium registration, including the banquet, gift, and RexxLA membership is $295 before April 19, and $345 afterwards. Daily registration for only the sessions is $50 and $60 respectively. You may register from the Symposium Registration webpage using credit card, check, or PayPal.
The IBM Rexx Development Team has generously offered to host the Symposium at the luxurious IBM Executive Briefing Center at their BЖblingen Research Labs on Tuesday and Wednesday. To ease travel considerations, the first and last days of the Symposium will be held at the Symposium hotel.
An excellent room rate of 87 Euro has been negotiated with the Stuttgart Marriott Hotel Sindelfingen. Please see the Symposium Announcement for booking information.
Come and join us in celebrating the Twenty-fifth Anniversary of the Rexx programming language!
