Project-related discussion

• The MIBBI Foundry email discussion list is the place for public discussion of Foundry development work.
• General (MIBBI/MI-related) issues are better discussed in the MIBBI Open Discussion Forum.

Preparatory analysis

The first project to be run under the Foundry was a 'zoomed out' cross analysis of all the guidelines registered with MIBBI by Summer 2008, built in part around the RSBI's I/S/A structure (described on the 'About us' page), in order to produce a coarse-grained visual guide to the various scopes of those projects, and how they overlap. The most recent version of this analysis (which will be regularly updated and evolved) is available for download.

Resources

• The draft XML Schema for the XML version of the modules (XML Spy schema image here).

Probably this will change a bit as we go. [N.B., the XML versions of the modules on display in the wiki will ultimately be the base for the content delivered by MICheckout.]

• A draft XSLT script to transform the XML representation of modules (specified in the above XML Schema) into MediaWiki markup.

For example, this schema-compliant draft of the 'Environment' module has the XSL specified and so what you see on clicking is the XML transformed (by your browser) into the wiki markup needed (i.e., cut and paste this into the site and you get nice HTML like Environment).

N.B., this script will evolve with testing as more (and more complex) modules are put in XML.
