I'd say it needs to modeled as a simplified form of Semantic Web, following RESTful approach. You identify the resources here, which end up having URIs, that is: posting (tweet, G+ post, FB status update etc) user (typically I would not repeat all the user info every time if I have the URI to identify, but that could be my relational d b thinking) Then using those URIs you can say additional things about these resources - i.e. if the post has been retweeted from elsewhere, you'd probably ref the URI of that post, if you want to mention a person or an account you ref the URI of that user. I wouldn't go too far in defining specific actions for a specific service - some people insist on using instagram or flickr when sharing photos, even when the actual sharing happens on facebook, is that a facebook or flickr interaction, does it matter? Instead I'd focus on modelling the interactions - the fact that the post is retweeted means it's gaining popularity and could possibly be hijacked for marketing purposes, for example. Currently I don't see you gathering bits like how many times has this been shares or a number of +1, arguably this is more important than who as was the case with hundreds retweeting iBook author EULA... One final bit I'd take into consideration is: a) the technology that's been used to create those social interactions b) the way you might want to consume and process what you've just captured. ad a) Both twitter and facebook have initially built their sites with relational db's on the backend (Ror / php) so in some ways, interactions with those sites is still limited somewhat and while improvements have already been announced, the only verb you can use on facebook posts is still like, even if it's a post on genocide. I'm sure that somewhere behind layers of memcached there's still the posts table and the users table and mirroring that in XML is trivial. Ad b) I obviously understand the reasons to model this in XML, but it is very likely that this sort of data will want to be consumed in JSON or more generally in key/value pairs, so model it so that the XML can split and rebuilt from those pairs trivially. Finally how's that related to docbook? ;) Lech - To unsubscribe, e-mail: docbook-unsubscr...@lists.oasis-open.org For additional commands, e-mail: docbook-h...@lists.oasis-open.org

[docbook] how to include title and caption
The docbook standard allows you to use either a caption or a title. I would like to use both. There is this option: doc:table class=long-metrics title=Carousel Picking 2010-2011 tabstyle=long doc:caption Data for Carousel picking, 2010-2011. The rate did not change for Carousel picking. Carousel picking handles a small amount of volume, but at a faster rate. /doc:caption However, the standard XSL stylesheets will not format both. I know how to customize the stylesheets, but I am wondering why it is difficult to format both. Is it not usual to have both a title and caption?
Re: [docbook] how to include title and caption
Hi Paul, This combination appears to have been missed by the FO stylesheet. But some clarification is in order. DocBook 5 supports two table models: CALS-markup and HTML-markup tables. When you use the HTML-markup model, its caption element replaces the title element, based on how W3C HTML tables are modeled. So you cannot use both title and caption with an HTML-markup table. That version of the caption element has a content model like title, allowing only text and inlines. If you use CALS-markup, you can put a title at the beginning and a caption at the end. That version of the caption element can contain para and other block elements. Currently the FO stylesheet does not format the caption at the end, which I believe is an oversight. The HTML stylesheet does. Thanks for the bug report. I just checked in an update for the FO stylesheet to process caption in a CALS-markup table. That fix will appear in the next release. If you want to add the fix to your customization layer, you would need to copy the template named calsTable from fo/table.xsl to your customization layer and add this line at the end of the template: xsl:apply-templates select=d:caption/ Bob Stayton Sagehill Enterprises b...@sagehill.net - Original Message - From: Paul Tremblay To: docbook@lists.oasis-open.org Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2012 12:47 PM Subject: [docbook] how to include title and caption The docbook standard allows you to use either a caption or a title.

Re: [docbook-apps] Customizing and creating a stylesheet for docbook using the XML Mind or Oxygen XML Editor
Hi Daniel, Oxygen (and most probably also XML Mind) uses CSS stylesheets in order to display the XML in the Author editing mode in a visual pleasing manner. Those CSS styles which you use for visual editing do not influence the publishing in any way. Output for PDF (and for XHTML, etc) can indeed be customized by setting XSLT parameters to the publishing transformation scenario.
