bjonnh opened a new issue #21: Ability to use multiple layers of annotation. URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-annotator/issues/21 This kind of thing cannot be represented in a DOM easily, unless we have a tree and a way for each tree to just represent the index of the annotations in it. Working in a DOM: <annotation type="important_sentence">The <annotation type="animal">cat</annotation> is on the <annotation type="place">roof</annotation></annotation> Not working in a DOM: <anno1>.....<anno2>.....</anno1>.....</anno2> I was envisionning something similar to (not following any W3C recommendation here, just an idea) <text> Something is here <annotations> <annotation_layer><annotation type="verb" start_index="9" end_index="11">is</annotation></annotation_layer> <annotation_layer><annotation type="sentence" start_index="0" end_index="-1">Something is here</annotation></annotation_layer> <annotation_layer><annotation type="beginning" start_index="0" end_index="11">Something is</annotation></annotation_layer> <annotation_layer><annotation type="end" start_index="9" end_index="15">is here</annotation></annotation_layer> </annotations> </text> But copying the text over and over is probably not a good idea?
