- Discussion:
Scott: We are now up to items g/h. Have made a lot of progress.
Need to test draft and see if we need to add any new rqmts.
Check out publishers.rnc[1]
Comment: Customization was very clean; shows how well the schema
has been structured.
8. Discuss support for poems (suggestions by Dave, Gary)
- Discussion:
Scott: Want more generic structure or specific?
Keith: DB5 doesn't have semantically appropriate category.
He prefers generic markup over narrowly defined markup.
John: NLM DTD didn't want an over-arching container element.
The group didn't come to a strong conclusion on the idea of
container elements, but the discussion leaned towards having
them.
Keith: Can dialog and poem be captured by single markup, since
dialog needs to identify a speaker?
The group generally agreed that dialog and poetry should
probably be separate, but would likely have shared markup.
Scott: Reminder that we want to markup for publishing. What
are requirements for publisher?
The group discussed this point and also discussed the HTML5
dialog element[2].
Scott: Need to work with some examples.
Shakespeare samples available courtesy of Jon Bosak[3]
Scott: what about using another namespace?
The group discussed this point and are leaning towards
not doing that because the known alternatives (e.g., TEI)
have less descriptive tags than DocBook.
Group agreed to continue discussion on mailing list
9. Discuss whether to assign additional class attributes to article
or other modifications to better support journal publishing.
- Continued to next meeting; see action below for Keith.
Current values of class attribute in article can be
found in the Definitive Guide for Version 5.0[4].
10.Discuss legal/govt citations.
For example, what is the best practice for marking up the following:
According to the Bank Holding Company Act (12 USC 1841(c)(2)(F))...
- Continued to next meeting; see action below for Gary.
11. Review of Requests for Enhancement
- None currently: send RFEs to Scott until tracker is set up
12. Added: OASIS email policy
- It is a violation of OASIS policy to use an outside
mailing list for committee communications. Therefore,
we need to delete the sourceforge list and move all
business to the OASIS list. See actions below.
Summary of New Action Items:
ACTION: All: look for good examples of dialog and poetry
ACTION: Scott: put query out on list for ideas on handling dialog;
especially identifying speakers.
ACTION: Keith: will look for suggestions as listed in previous minutes.
ACTION: Norm: Delete sourceforge mailing list.
ACTION: Scott: Send email to sourceforge list and ask
people to subscribe to the OASIS list.
ACTION: Gary: Look for additional examples of legal citations.
ACTION: All: Try out publishers.rnc[1]:
