Hello Lee,

concede-admin very conveniently hit both myself and Adam, so Gerald does
not need to take any further action.

Gerald mentioned your work to me last time we spoke and I'm very much
looking forward to seeing the results.

I'm sending by separate email the postscript version of the (single)
paper that was the basis of the two presentations you mentioned. Please
not however that this is an UNPUBLISHED PROJECT-INTERNAL document and
should not be cited or distributed without the authors' express
permission (this is not because its secret, but because it will probably
change form, title and maybe even authorship before it does get
published somehow.)

best wishes

Roger

Took a look at DATR - wow, a very powerful, very simple model. I bet you
could have implemented most of XML-Schema in it at a fraction of the
complexity. Has it been used much outside linguistics?

How are you getting on with the XSLT? What you're attempting sounds very
do-able - especially if you have a copy of Mike Kay's book...

Let me know if you have any interesting problems - it's a while since I
coughed up for my copy of LPA Micro Prolog (for DOS!) but with hindsight
it was a really useful non-procedural skill, probably still paying off
whenever I bump into another non-procedural language - like XSLT itself.

Anyway, I like debugging interesting programming problems...

(Hmmm... presumably you could do a *certain* amount just by using XSLT
as the target language as well as the transform language)

Francis.

ps - you anything to do with the Concede people who seem to be doing
SGML/XML -> DATR at the University of Brighton
(http://www.itri.brighton.ac.uk/projects/concede/DR0.2.1_no_pointers.html)
- are they neighbours?
