Re: Shared references service

Interesting...

For those of us using xmlspec, I don't suppose you could offer xml as
well as json? It doesn't make it much easier but it might make it a bit
easier: the json parsing in the following is a bit flaky and it would
probably be easier for the server just to serve the structure it had?

If not, the json parsing could of course be improved, this is just a
quick test of your server:).



Anyway:

$ saxon9 -it webref  refbib.xsl  q=MATHML,SVG

produces

where refbib.xsl is attached


I note that q=MATHML returns the latest MathML draft in TR. I don't 
really mind but the notes imply it perhaps ought to return the editors' 
draft (or there should be another ID that returns the editors' draft?)
which would be

https://www.w3.org/Math/Group/draft-spec/

rather than

http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML/
