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 that’s 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 craze—when 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. More on Balisage 2022 Full Program: https://www.balisage.net/2022/Program.html Registration: https://www.balisage.net/registration.html |
