RE: [jats-list] future of Preview XSLT

["Kelly, Laura (NIH/NLM/NCBI) [E]" <kelly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As one of the "nice people behind http://jats.nlm.nih.gov/";, I can tell you
that we will add a resources page...once there are resources available. :)

Since the available version (0.4) is a draft, we're not adding any resources
yet. Once v1.0 is released, that will change. As was the case with the
dtd.nlm.nih.gov site, we're open to suggestions. We do have certain
limitations because they're government-hosted sites, but we'll certainly do
what we can to make the site more useful.

Thanks,
Laura

Hi Kevin --

With NLM's sponsorship we at Mulberry are updating the preview stylesheets and
hope to release improved versions approximately when JATS 1.0 is approved and
released. Among the new features will be support forward to JATS 1.0 and
backward to NLM 2.3

We appreciate your bug report, and all other reports of infelicities. We can't
promise to fix everything but we will certainly try.

And once we announce the new stylesheets we hope you will test, comment, and
suggest improvements.

-- Tommie

JATS is approved as a NISO standard and then:
