Ross,

I think one of the stumbling blocks we're having here is trying to
figure out what we're really using citations for.

...

Are we leaving a scenario out?

I have a lot of interest shown by Australian government developers - basically every one I mention ufs to independently says "a format for citations would be great". What they need is for is that any time a government publication refers to any other publication (a site, a book, a pamphlet on immunisation, a poster on healthy diets, whatever) they have to cite it. But of course there is no citation format.

I actually am planning a developer day in the next month or so for government web developers to introduce the ideas and take a good long look at hCite from the perspective of the uf principles.

I actually think a reasonably minimal set of properties would suffice for their needs, but hope to find out first hand soon.

BTW, any Australian, particularly Canberra based (I'm in Sydney but the interest is federal government developers) people, but really anyone keen to meetup in either place and or chat more on this, please drop me a line

#3 seems the most complicated.  If the goals of #1 are met, then #2
will most likely be met, as well (although not necessarily the
reverse).

Does this seem accurate?

If Brian Suda has the spare cycles I think this is an excellent idea.
The citation effort has gone on for a long time, so Simon's questions
are most welcome.
