Scope of the Activity |
The projects collects and publishes information about the various acronyms prevalent within the XML technology.
We develop a XML language (formulated using W3Cs XML Schema accompanied with a plain english semantics description) to store, exchange, and process information about the various acronyms of the XML technology.
These information include the expansion of the respective acronym together with textual background information about the technology behind. Additionally, web references to normative resources and optionally links to examples should also be included.
Further, the project delivers a XSLT sheet allowing to transfer the XML coded acronym information into the input format suitable for the Babylon Translator. Hence, the project will also release the acronym information as pre-built Babylon glossary.
Since there are so many XML related acronyms the targeted goal cannot be accomplished without external involvement. The project will therefore strongly encourage all interested parties to contribute.
