On November 9th, I'll be giving an introduction to SVG at a XML User's Group meeting in the Research Triangle Park (in the Triangle area of North Carolina: Raleigh/Cary, Durham, and Chapel Hill/Carrboro). This will basically be a concise revamp of a lecture I gave at SVG-Open 2004. The event starts at 6. It's free, and you'll get a small sandwich and a bag of chips for your trouble.

You can find more details at http://www.trixml.org/futuremeetings.shtml, including directions on how to get there.

This is a beginner course, so SVG gurus need not apply. Unless they want a snack.
