Projects, Plans and Priorities for the XML Working Group:  How You Can Benefit & How You Can Help (Ambur, USFWS)

The purpose of the XML working group (xmlWG) is to accelerate, facilitate and catalyze the effective and appropriate implementation of XML technology in the information systems and planning of the Federal Government. In coordination with the CIO Council committees and working groups, the xmlWG will: identify and when necessary, develop XML best practices and recommendation standards; foster partnerships with key industry and public interest groups developing and implementing XML standards and best practices; foster partnerships among the communities of interest/practice involving agencies at all levels of government to capitalize as rapidly and effectively as possible on the potential benefits of XML to citizens and taxpayers; conduct "results-oriented" education and outreach; and propose for consideration by the AIC specific projects and products benefiting stakeholders of multiple Federal agencies.
