[xsl] [ANN] Balisage Dress Rehearsal

["B Tommie Usdin btusdin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Balisage 2022 Dress Rehearsal - 31 July 2022

Balisage will host a dress rehearsal and social time on the Sunday before the
conference for all Balisage attendees.

Balisage is using the Whova Conference Portal, which is unfamiliar to some
attendees and has changed since some of us used it last year at Balisage. To
provide an opportunity for us all to figure out how the portal works, we will
have a "Dress Rehearsal" on the Sunday before the conference. The Dress
Rehearsal will start with some social time including coaching to help people
get logged in to Whova, followed by two short conference talks with Q&A
sessions, and end with some small group social time.


Schedule

Sunday, 31 July 2021

Sunday 11:00 - 12:00 EDT
Dress Rehearsal & Social Time

Conference staff will be available to help you get checked in to the Balisage
conference portal. Once you're in, this would be a good time to look at the
options available in the portal, greet old friends, perhaps chat with fellow
Balisage attendees, test your camera and microphone, make sure you can
participate without feedback, and generally get familiar with the Balisage
virtual conference environment.


Sunday 12:00 - 12:15 EDT (+ Q&A 12:15 - 12:25)
Electronic Verse Engineer
Wendell Piez

Suppose you want to publish an anthology, with TEI or BITS, for example. Part
of the workflow is going to be capturing verse. Electronic Verse Engineer is a
Markdown-like interface for capturing verse (as opposed to unstructured
paragraphs), with some annotation capability. It can capture prose, if
thatbs what you have. You type and it makes XML for you. It is meant to be a
building block in an Anthology Builder application, to publish your anthology.
(I hear that Anthology Building is going to be the next crazebwhen it
happens, you heard it from me.)


Sunday 12:30 - 12:45 EDT (+ Q&A 12:45 - 12:55)
Customisation of Akoma Ntoso using Schematron
Geert Bormans, C-Moria BV

Akoma Ntoso, an Oasis Open standard for legal documents, is gaining
popularity. Since the standard aims to cover a wide variety of legislative and
parliamentary traditions, it is fairly broad and generic. Projects usualy
start by customisation of the standard to a local tradition. Such a
customisation is usualy achieved by generating a so called subschema through
publicaly available tooling. This presentation shows an alternative approach
for some common use cases using Schematron instead.


Sunday 13:00 -13:30 EDT
Small Group Conversation

The Balisage informal meeting spaces will be open. Stop by the Fire Pit, the
Curved Benches, or the Coffee Shop.
