Scheduled Maintenance:
We are undertaking some essential and extensive maintenance to improve the
Yahoo!7 Calendar. This means your Group Calendar is being migrated to a much
improved version of Yahoo!7 Calendar.
During the maintenance period, you may not have access to your Groups Calendar
for several hours and we sincerely apologise for this inconvenience. Your Groups Calendar is in great shape and we are working to have it available
again as quickly as possible. Your patience is appreciated

G'day, folks! Welcome to this sad, sad day for the anti-Topic Maps movement. We're in the very begining of this attempt to pull ourselves together, put I'd...
Hi, I'm refining my CSXTM format into a simpler richer XML format for Topic Mappsy things. One of the biggest gripes about XTM is that the format is too...
Hi Robert, Thanks for the reply, and thanks for joining in. ... Well, I spoke to Murray Altheim about it (one of the editors of XTM) and he certainly designed...
... Sure, but XML has its limits, like _everything_ else. I would not want to see people, say, program _in_ XML: <package name="weather"> <class name="report">...
BTW folks, I just saw that the minutes of the Amsterdam ISO meetings are out. FYI: http://www.jtc1sc34.org/repository/0625.htm Alexander may want to look at 8....
I'm hoping the US is not too far away for me to join? My interest in topic maps springs from work in knowledge management and knowledge mapping. Have been...
Hi, Time to introduce what I am doing here. I learnt about TMs in 2000 in Europe and brought it to Bond University @ Gold Coast. Since there is and was very...
Hi Denham, I reckon US falls within the 'anyone' demographic just fine. ... I recall from my days back when I was doing similar stuff using homebrew stuff. Do...
Hi there, Since Denham and Robert started off so nicely, I'll join in and let you know what I'm doing. I'm a Norwegian trapped in Australia (for personal...
Hi Robert, ... Um, I do a lot of XSLT, so I guess I shouldn't talk too much about this. But yes, programming in XML seems a bit silly ... as far as solving a...
I will keep with the Canberra theme... My name is Paul Mosig and I also happen to work at the National Library of Australia.... It is fair to say my interest...
... Yes, but "horses for courses" and the natives here use to say :-) ... That is has no semantics? But you are certainly right, in that "right and wrong" is...
Most of you may know it, still worth mentioning, our RSS feed at http://topicmaps.bond.edu.au/weblogs.mc http://topicmaps.bond.edu.au/weblogs.rss larsbot and...
Hello fellow topic-mappers. By way of introductions, I came across topic maps in the pursuit of knowledge management about mid-2002. They appeared to be a...
Thanks for the clarification Robert. Looks like I'd missed something somewhere. And, as I've been out of the loop for a bit, mistook typing for reification, as...
Hi, I think this discussion has derailed a tiny bit, so I'll try and push it back to the subject, because, eh, that's what I want to get at. :) ... Can't you...
... Well, the 'natives' said it, not me :-)) No, seriously, even under the immense risk to bore some participants of the list to death, I think this is an...
Hi, Was going to reply to this later, but since I'm between meetings ... ... I still don't follow: If I gave you <for> or I gave you "for" it doesn't matter....
... Not quite. With <for> (and the information that you gave me an XML document), I know that the string follows the syntactic rules of XML. I do not need to...
Heya, A quick response this time; ... Ok, I think is the point of quibble; How do you know that? By recognising the angle brackets? Are you sure it isn't HTML?...
... No, by you telling me the type of the string. That is NOT the crux of our discussion. ... No, if I tell you that the rashdi/bongo text is Rexx, then you ...
... I've been doing a lot of this recently - writing XSLT to transform TEI XML documents into XTM. TEI is an enormously complex doctype, in which containment...
Hi there, ... Hmm, no longer sure what this is all about, so I'll just make a final statement on what I'm trying to say; XML has, in its nature of being...
... Con, Very interesting. Is this 'containment disclosure' the only thing the XSLT sheets are doing, or is there something else (data cleaning, ...)? The...
... Nope it does a shitload of stuff :-) I'm not entirely happy with the structure of the XSLT to be honest, but at least it's modular (i.e. it's a black box...
... *grumble* Not you too! In theory, yes indeed. In practice, over my dead body. Alex -- "Ultimately, all things are known because you want to believe you...
Hi, ... I seem to remember you talking about this. I guess this is why you were interested in how I did the same for MARC XML. I guess we should compare notes...
