    Subject: Announcement: XML Acronym Demystifier


    
    > Dear Colleagues,
    > 
    > Frustrated with the tantalizing amount of TLA and FLA within the XML and
    > Web Services Acronym Soup (XAS ;-) we started an open-source XML-based
    > project named the "XML Acronym Demystifier" [1].
    > 
    > We decided to collect XML and Web Service related acronyms and
    > abbreviations together with their explanation and short introductory
    > texts stating that the thing identified by the acronym is all about.
    > Additionally, every acronym is accompanied with at least a link to more
    > information or directly to the originating spec if possible.
    > 
    > The project is strongly based on XML technology since the data source
    > holding the acronyms and their explanations is a XML file. Furthermore,
    > also the search engine available at [1] is purely XML-based since it is
    > implemented as a XSLT transformation which is parametrized by the values
    > supplied by the Web form.
    > All sources (the XML source, all the transformations) are available
    > online, as well as results suitable to be used inside the Babylon
    > translater or a representation as Topic Map (RDF will shortly follow).
    > 
    > We invite all readers of XML-DEV to use the service and also to
    > contribute to the project.
    > 
    > Best regards,
    > Mario
