Still Proofreading... but Encoding Begins!

It has been a busy couple of months since the last post. While continuing with the proofreading, which has taken much longer than originally estimated, we have developed a full schema (also in RelaxNG) for encoding the data and have hired a consultant to develop some nifty XSL transformations to move the data from our short vendor schema to the full schema. Following this post I will begin uploading the master encoding guide that provides a detailed narrative of each element and examples of the mark-up.
