This a minor release of Akoma Ntoso with some additions and bug fixes drawn from discussions held at the Ravenna Legislative XML Summer School in September 2011.

This is an almost backward compatible release.  This release is the first one to exclusively use the new namespace declaration http://www.akomantoso.org/2.0.

These are the changed introduced:

  • A new attribute, number, has been specified for the metadata publication element
  • Element list, a block-level hierarchical container, is now called blockList, thus freeing the name list to become a new hierarchical container in the main hierarchy.
  • Three new hierarchical containers have been added, division, list and sublist.
  • Attribute for has been added to quotedText for a similar purpose as in quotedStructure, in case of multiple quotations within a same mmod or rmod.
  • A new element fillin has been added as an inline element (to be probably shown as a dotted line or any other typographical characteristics to represent a fill-in element in a printed form, that is as an example of an actual form. It is NOT meant to be used for form elements as in HTML, i.e. as a way to collect input from the reader and deliver to some server-side process.
  • Element subheading can now be placed within a quotedStructure
  • Two new elements, extractText and extractStructure, can now be specified in any context to express an extract from a different text.
  • Two new inline HTML elements have been added, sup and sub, for respectively superscript and subscript text.
