I would very much appreciate a wiki with pages on several rendition strategies / technologies. When I once tried Speedata, I didn't get very far, but if there's a wiki where I could compare the approaches of XSL-FO and Speedata, I imagine it might be easier to check out this or that strategy. Best regards, Kai Weber ---------- Původní zpráva ---------- Od: Tony Graham <tgraham@mentea.net> Datum: 18. 2. 2014 Předmět: Add wiki pages for worked examples of sample documents? "Harking back to the discussion of having a 'cook-off' at the PPL CG's session [1] at XML Prague 2014, and Liam's comment [3]: If people will learn useful things from it then it sounds like it might be useful in and of its own right... I presented XSL-FO and CSS renditions of the first page of the First Folio edition of Shakespeare's 'Julius Caesar' from TEI and XHTML markup in one of my other presentations [5], and Patrick ran up a speedata rendition at short notice [4] that I also showed, so it seems to me that it would be useful to put some or all of those on separate wiki pages each with a discussion of their approach, trade-offs, and successes as a starter-set for an eventual collection of worked sample documents where people might learn useful things, though to do it properly it also seems to me that we would also want a GitHub (or similar) repository where people can also get the various flavours of code. [6] What do people think? Doing 'Julius Caesar' was largely because I had XSL-FO renditions from TEI and XHTML (and DocBook and DITA) lying around already (though both Liam and I made reference to a speech from it). What else would make a suitable candidate for this sort of treatment?
