Re: Scholarly Publishing @ the W3C

I've been working with reading JATS-XML and have built a semantic engine
(in Java). I now convert horror-formats like PDF and publisherHTML (of
which much is non-scholarly - marketing, recommendations, etc.) into a
stripped version with JATS tags for metadata. HTML <meta> tags have no
structure, are badly defined (there's no home page for Highwire tags, DC is
inadequate). So I'm happy with JATS front/body/back/float-groups.
The body is effectively HTML and the main problem is it's often
unstructured, but it can be hacked.

So given the inactivity on this lists I think that subsets of JATS
fragments are satisfactory. I helped create the term "scholarlyHTML" in the
Panton Arms (IIRC) but I'm not wedded to its future.

All my code is public in the AMI system https://github.com/petermr/ami3.
