This is wonderful news! I would encourage the 3.0 team to think about and support a more robust, complex querying language. I quickly outstripped the limited range of . and ! in the current version (at least the range attested in the documentation), and set my project aside, frustrated. I wanted, for example, to display the content of property B of a class of Y objects, selecting only those Ys where the first four characters Y's property A (think instring function) correspond to a property C of a preselected object X.
It would be nice, too, to have greater support of GREP. I'm happy to put limited time into testing and helping with documentation. jk On Jan 14, 6:07 pm, mackenzie <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm delighted to announce the launch of a new "Exhibit 3.0" project: a > collaboration of the original Simile project team including the MIT > Libraries, MIT CSAIL, and Zepheira, with funding and support from the > U.S. Library of Congress. > > Exhibit 3.0 will build on the success of the current Exhibit tool but > redesign it to be far more scalable, flexible and modular.
