Indeed, every session provoked questions and comments on the subject of the US Sarbanes-Oxley Act (aka SOX or Sarbox) regardless of the keynote topic.

Model Driven Architecture (MDA) and its first cousin Model Driven Development continue to make news in the industry. People now use MDA in a variety of ways.
