Do we need an Endorsements structure? Primary use would be for marketing (what others are saying about this book...)

Keith: sidebars has been the biggest pain point. Most O'Reilly needs have been addressed moving from DB4 to DB5.

Periodicals - is book a good enough wrapper for a collection of articles, or is that semantically out of place? Are there other structures that are needed?

Dick - Wouldn't be surprised to find additional needs for metadata or other inserts.

Need additional input from periodical publishers

Keith - Is now a good time to ask the broader Publisher audience for pain points?
A.I. Keith to attempt contact with Pearson and O'Reilly, Harvard Business School, etc.
A.I. All to identify other venues to call for publisher inputs
