Apologizes for cross-postings. *************************************** Call for contributions, First International Akoma Ntoso Conference (IANC 2015) http://www.akomantoso.org August 1st 2015, George Mason University, Fairfax, Virginia (USA) *************************************** Objectives *************************************** With the upcoming enactment of the new OASIS standard called Akoma Ntoso, the digital representation in XML of legal and legislative documents is coming of age. More and more local and national Parliaments and legislative bodies are adopting, including or considering the switch to Akoma Ntoso for both its completeness and its flexibility, and many organizations are considering its adoption even outside of legislation, exploring document types ranging from judgments to hansards, from parliamentary orders of the day and amendment lists to documents with no legal or legislative nature at all, such as plays and literary works. For these reasons we seek and encourage practitioners, public employees, academics, researchers and activists to contribute and share their experiences in searching, evaluating, adopting, adapting, providing tools and training personnel in using Akoma Ntoso for legal, legislative and other types of documents. Topics *************************************** Topics sought after for the conference include, but are not limited to: * Experiences in the adoption of Akoma Ntoso in legal and legislative bodies * Interactive tools for legal and legislative personnel * Document repositories for legal, legislative and other types of documents * Access mechanisms and the Akoma Ntoso naming convention * Semantic Web and Akoma Ntoso * Activism, hacktivism and how Akoma Ntoso can help Important Dates *************************************** Paper Submission Deadline: June 15th, 2015 Authors Notification: June 30th, 2015 Camera Ready Paper: July 10th, 2015 Program Chairs *************************************** Monica Palmirani, University of Bologna, OASIS LegalDocML Co-chair Fabio Vitali, University of Bologna, OASIS LegalDocML Co-chair Local Organizer *************************************** Melanie Knapp Head of Reference and Instructional Services George Mason University Law Library 3301 Fairfax Drive, MSN 1G1 Arlington, VA 22201-4426 Tel: (703) 993-8111 Program Committee *************************************** tbd Publication Details *************************************** All manuscripts must be written in English and must not exceed 20 single column double-spaced pages (inclusive of figures and tables using a font size of at least 12 points) describing original unpublished research.
