Re: [jats-list] Does Blue need a Lite version, to counter its creeping aquafication?

Dear Mark,

Thank you so much for taking the time to run the analysis and for filing 
the pull request.

We will try to reproduce, using the cache files that you sent, under 
which circumstances the division by zero occurs. Then we'll see whether 
there is something else that we should do about it or whether your fix 
addresses the problem without distorting the results.

To all others that submitted files to Nina already: Thank you, too!

To everyone else who sits on tons of JATS and hasnbt sent anything yet: 
There's still 10 days left to put something together.

Gerrit

It is a call to action that asks you to donate some of your valuable JATS files to research. Or you can use some XSLT [3] in order to extract element/attribute name lists from the JATS files yourselves so you need not send potentially proprietary data to someone else.
