What:       In a thought-provoking session titled "EDI: Dead or
             Evolving", John Stelzer of Sterling Commerce will examine
             the changing role of the EDI/EC professional and the
             importance of that new role in today's evolving
             marketplace.

            Mr. Stelzer challenges attendees to think about
             integration beyond EDI. He will delve into the roadblocks
             that have limited mass industry adoption of EDI, and
             highlight how EDI/EC professionals are evolving their use
             of integration solutions. He'll explore ways to support
             unique, per-partner business processes; increase the
             community of partners who can leverage EDI; and implement
             new services by working in conjunction with other
             solutions, like integration gateways.
