[humanmarkup] Base Schema - semiote

[Rex Brooks <rexb@starbourne.com>]

Here is a first take on:

Base Schema - semiote

This is an abstract complexType element which will take the attribute 
humlComAtts since it applies to exclusively communication or aspects 
of communication. It does not use other elements. It may be used by 
other elements.

It is described/defined as a processor capable of emitting and/or 
producing signs. It may be living or artificial for purposes of this 
specification.

This element, along with sign, signal and symbol, the the key 
concepts involved in the semiotic processor experiment which we have 
initiated and which has significant promise as a processing model for 
the communication process. In short, it allows for a more inherently 
analytical  model of the process. It is thought that in this way, 
clarity and accuracy in communication can be notably enhanced. So it 
is particularly important for us to be thorough and careful in our 
definition and use of this element. So we invite all comments to be 
made promptly.

There will be further opportunity to comment on this concept in the 
public comment period, but comments now will be included in the 
initial documentation of our discussion on this element.



Ciao,
Rex
