Some of it is documented in the Annotea schema - http://www.w3.org/2000/10/annotation-ns# - but a lot of it seems undocumented - all I could find were examples in the Annotea protocol document - http://www.w3.org/2001/Annotea/User/Protocol.html - but it seems pretty straightforward. If we decided to use this approach we might do the annotea community a favour as well as ourselves, by writing up a documented schema... cheers Chaals -- Charles McCathieNevile Fundacion Sidar charles@sidar.org +61 409 134 136 http://www.sidar.org
