Boston Cocoon Users Group -- Meeting 9 December

[Brad Kain <br...@quoininc.com>]

We would like to announce the formation of the Boston Cocoon Users
Group. Individuals representing developers and organizations building
Cocoon-based systems met on 22 November 2004 to organize this group.
(See the minutes of this meeting.)

The objective for the Boston Cocoon Users Group is to provide a forum
for end-users and technologists to learn about Apache Cocoon. We plan on
holding monthly meetings in the Boston area. The meetings will allow
participants to do the following:

-- Describe examples of Cocoon use;
-- Present design patterns;
-- Share real-world experience;
-- Discuss business and technology objectives;
-- Present case studies; and,
-- See vendor technical presentations.

We have defined the following initial program.
