[okfn-discuss] open Milton and Shakespeare XML

Sun Nov 23 17:20:59 UTC 2008

Rufus,

I've managed to put together a css file which can be used on the Bosak 
XML Shakespeare plays but still ironing out the quirks in it. Out to be 
able to upload the file tomorrow (I hope) and we will need to add a line 
to the XML files. I'll work on a more stable XSL file to cover plays, 
prose and verse.

A quick query on the homepage for open Milton. Are we using a different 
set of templates for each site or do we need something more generic 
which covers both Shakespeare and Milton or a couple of the lines in the 
guide?

For the time line, are we using Microfacts? I've got a nascent one that 
I started doing some work with to experiment with Simile which is 
available here: http://www.austgate.co.uk/development/nobel.htm. Any use?

Iain
