Re: [dev-biblio] reminder on Zotero, OOo 3.0

2008-06-28 Thread Gannon Dick
PortableApps.com has FireFox 3 in a portable version, which runs from a thumb drive/USB Stick. With Zotero, this is ideal for students (and we tightwads) who do research on other's machines. Sadly, the portable version of OO is old ... --Gannon --- On Sat, 6/28/08, Bruce D'Arcus [EMAIL

Bruce, I'm very involved with another project at the momment (http://www.RUSTPrivacy.org/) so I don't think I'd be much help with maintenance. I do have some questions about the translators ... - have generic translators been made for the common OO output formats (HTML,XHTML,DocBook etc.) ?

Simple is good :) I came up with a bit different solution, but the result is the same ... The 'biblio' table is actually selectable (there is a drop down box). Whichever table is selected last is used to populate the attributes of the text:bibliography-mark node. You can select either a

1. The Bibliography Table (a list/format control which collates 'Bibliography Entry' marks) is broken. I didn't see this on the list of deficiencies, but I might have missed it. In any case I wrote it up and the problem probably should be fixed, not because the current Bibliography facility is

[dev-biblio] Micro-formats / Smart Tags / Meta Data Resolver

2006-11-28 Thread Gannon Dick
Not all meta data systems use the URL's and PURL's (http://www.purl.org) system for element resolution like the Dublin Core. This makes it hard to search (backward) for equivilents. It occured to me that this happens because of how you set up the problem, but with a different sort of resolver

a) ODF is authored in RELAX NG, which has far more power to validate this sort of stuff than XSD. The Dublin Core is authored in XSD or RDF, and both namespaces are controlled by the W3C. I don't want to produce RELAX NG schema for Dublin Core as a prerequsite for further work. I assume in

Re: [dev-biblio] ODF and xsd schema

I have XSD schemas for ODF 1.0, but limited to two namespaces (meta and settings). The problem of course is that all 27 namespaces would need definition. So, I write flat ODF with an identity transform filter then reduce that to //office:document/office:meta or //office:document/office:settings.
