This is great news - indicative of the growing support for Bruce's innovative approach to metadata support in OpenDocument - which is central to the sucesss of our bibliographic project. For those who have not yet come across it yet a mp3 is available of the talk Bruce was recently invited to give to the Canadian library technology conference Access 2005. His talk was - Bridging Worlds: Library IT and Free Software "Presents ongoing work in improving open standards and software for students and researchers by exploiting innovations in library-oriented technology and trends in the free software community. Focuses in particular on the OpenOffice bibliographic project and related work." You can down load the mp3 http://access2005.library.ualberta.ca/presentations/podcasts/darcus.mp3 and the slides http://www.users.muohio.edu/darcusb/talks/biblio/Access2005.html Also the OpenDocument Fellowship can be found at - http://opendocumentfellowship.org/Main/HomePage regards David > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ------------------- David N.
