CEE Announce - June 5, 2009 (opt-in newsletter from the CEE Web site)

[heinbockel]

Welcome to the latest issue of the CEE-Announce e-newsletter. This
email newsletter is designed to bring recent news about CEE, such as
new versions of the language specifications, upcoming conferences, new
Web site features, etc. right to your emailbox. Common Event
Expression (CEE) standardizes the way computer events are described,
logged, and exchanged. By using CEE's common language and syntax,
enterprise-wide log management, correlation, aggregation, auditing,
and incident handling can be performed more efficiently and produce
better results than was possible prior to CEE. Details on subscribing
(and unsubscribing) to the email newsletter are at the end.

Please feel free to pass this newsletter on to interested colleagues.
