Hello everybody, My name is Leonel from Costa Rica, I'm just to learn with NewsML ITCP and I have NewsML-G2 documentes (Implementation Guideline.pdf), but i...
Hi. You can find information for Reuters NewsML-G2 and web services access as below. http://reutersconnect.com/‬ Regards Dave Compton‪ Rgds DC M: +44...
Hi, I have a G2-based system where I use a <concept> element to represent a particular location (the city of Paris). It happens that I also have two other...
Hi Philippe, It doesn't matter whether systems A and B are G2-compliant. We use qcodes for everything, eg ISO country codes, ISO currency codes, etc. The...
Adding to what Misha said: look at the http://cvx.iptc.org/ page: it provides scheme URIs for schemes which are a) not G2 compliant schemes by their authority...
Thanks Misha and Michael. So, say I create a "locsysA" scheme as in Michael example, I would then instruct receivers that if they get a concept URI that starts...
Hi Philippe, This is a difficult issue. Thanks for raising it. We shall have to tweak the wording. Regarding ISO, I'm afraid that the same issue applies. As...
Hi Philippe I understand your concerns about the persistence of identifiers but this requirement cannot be cancelled that easily: - a news item of 12 September...
Hi Misha re "In case someone thinks that the continuity of the country's name indicates a continuity of identity, they are mistaken. " - I'm intrigued. Though...
Hi Jo, Long time no see. Consider Yugoslavia. Constituent republics peeled away, one after the other, but the Alpha-2 code "YU" was retained till (alomost)...
Misha You have to take into account the rules for assigning a country code to a country: - it must be a member of the UN (that's why the Kosovo has no code) -...
As I wrote below, the UN has changed the code for Sudan: http://unstats.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49alpha.htm Misha ... From: newsml-g2@yahoogroups.com...
Hi Misha, In line below. ... We should rectify that off list! ... In my opinion it's important to understand what the states themselves think. Whether you or I...
It's important to keep in mind the name of ISO 3166: "Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivisions". Note the word "names". When...
I need some help adding image captions to our newsML-G2 feed. Currently, we have multiple articles in the feed, with each article having multiple images via...
Hi Korympl, It sounds like you are not quite grasping the nature of a newsItem. It cannot have different images in the remotecontent section. By definition, a...
So basically, I need to make the images be newsitems and then combine the whole thing into a package using packageItem, like this? <itemSet> -<packageItem...
That model is much better. Depending on how you parse things, you can either assume newsitems in the same package are linked, or you can use the link element...
I noticed that everywhere in the implementation guide, the rendition is listed as "rnd:hiRes" but if I look here: http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/rendition/ it's...
Please use the values in the CV. The error in the Guidelines will be fixed. Apologies for the confusion. Regards Kelvin ... Kelvin Holland Guidelines Editor...
Thanks for all the help with my questions I did find one minor error in the implementation guide, that could be fixed... on page 31 and 34, the example begins...
Well spotted! I will correct. Thanks. Kelvin Sent using BlackBerry® from Orange ... From: "korympl" <mlong@...> Sender: newsml-g2@yahoogroups.com Date:...
Hi Jarred, I don't find the use of the word "ontology"; particularly helpful in this context. The IPTC has a taxonomy of Media Topics and an (older) taxonomy of...
Hi Jarred, IMO, this is completely detached from reality. The logical flaws are so fundamental, and the conviction with which the idea is being pushed so...
Dear all, I second Misha's position. Beyond the look of taxonomies, the RDF of rNews recently distributed shows that the model is not sound -> e.g. some of the...
