Greetings:

As both Edson Tirelli and Mark Proctor are presenting two great talks  
at October Rules Fest (http://www.OctoberRulesFest.org) this year, I  
thought it might be appropriate to let everyone know about the  
details.  We will have no less than three presentations on CEP (Edson  
Tirelli, Paul Vincent of Tibco and Luke Voss ) so it should be a  
really great time for techies of this unique little world of rulebased  
programmers.  Two of the talks have to do with complex implementations  
of a rulebased system.  Dr. Forgy has promised to discuss (in addition  
to his parallel rulebase presentation) his new Tech algorithm that is  
10 times faster than Rete 2 or Rete III.  In addition we will have

Dr. Forgy (Rete, Rete 2, Rete III, Tech)
Gary Riley (CLIPS inventor)
John Zachman (Enterprise Architecture guru)
Dr. Hafedh Mili (wrote all of the early JRules tutorial manuals)
Mark Proctor (Drools Inventor)
Dr. Richard Hicks (Validation and Verification guru)
Dr. Daniel Levine (One of the Neural Net Godfathers)
Daniel Brookshier (UML -> Rules inventor)
Carole Ann Berlioz-Matignon & Carlos Serrano-Morales (Advisor inventors)
Dr. Jacob Feldman (Open Rules inventor)
Jason Morris (Jess Answer Man)
Luke Voss (former JPL guru)

Remember three things:  (1)  The Early Bird Discount for the October  
Rules Fest expires at the end of July.  (2) There are a limited number  
of hotel rooms blocked off so, unless you register early, you won't be  
guaranteed a hotel room.  (3) There are a limited number of seats this  
year so unless you register early there is no guarantee that you will  
be able to register.

Now, the good stuff:  We have been blessed with three things that make  
for a GOOD conference.  Four things that make for a GREAT conference.   
Five things that make for an INSANELY GREAT conference.  Six things  
that make...  I just don't have the words for the sixth and seventh  
thing.

1. Great Sponsors
	2 Diamond (FICO, No Magic)
	2 Gold (PST, KBSC)
	1 Silver (Drools)
	1 Bronze (BizRules)

2. Great Speakers
	see those above

3. Great Meeting Place
	The BEST Hotel in Texas, The Adolphus in Dallas
	Located in the middle of the restaurant district of Downtown Dallas
	
4. Great Attendees
	Uber-geeks, techies, super-nerds, CTOs, CEOs,
	(and all of the other terms that drive Jason up the wall)
	Business Analysts, Programmers, Research guys,
	Ph.D. Candidates, University Professors
	HR guys looking for rulebase engineers?

5. White Papers will be published after the conference in a collection  
available either bound, printed format and/or online after the  
conference.

6. Videos will be done properly this year by Greg Barton and Chelanie  
Israel such that the author will be talking at one corner of the  
screen and the presentation on the other side of the screen.  (Very  
similar to what you see at parlays.com)  These will be available after  
the conference with a password given at the conference itself or  
shortly thereafter.

7. Conference Presentations (PPTs or PDFs) will be available both  
during and after the conference with the assigned password for access  
during and after the conference.

8.  Great Location for food!  The conference is located in the middle  
of the restaurant district of downtown Dallas and we will have listing  
of some of the ones that we know about.
