What is the difference between NewsML and NITF? They're both created by the same group, IPTC. Is NewsML "the new NITF?" Do they both serve different purposes? ...
NewsML is more of a packaging/composition envelope description language for one or more news content items and NITF is a language for news articles. They are...
Thanks for the reply, Sean. I have a couple of follow-up questions, if you don't mind. NITF would contain a single article, where as NewsML would contain a ...
Ooops. Sorry, Sean, I misread your post. Let me rephrase my questions. Is an NIFT document supposed to contain only one article, as opposed to NewsML's ability...
Yes - NITF is meant to contain only one news item; though it is cabable of containing references to media, this only works out to one story per file. NewsML is...
Hello all, I was just looking at the documents mentioned in the meeting today and realized that something we talked about during a lunch at the Autumn meeting...
... I'm not answering for Reuters officially here. But NewsML is about packaging and metadata; it supplies a standard wrapper for a story and standard...
I think followings is very clear to understand the difference between NewsML and NITF. I can briefly separate most formats in 2 types. 1. Content description...
Hi Reece ... 1. The 'one article per file' is true for what we term Simple News Items (SNIs), which relate to one of: a/ a single text story b/ a picture...

I think an important point here is that the NewsML packaging and metadata mechanisms apply to content irrespective of its media type. So while NewsML and NITF...
Dean, Your suggestion seems good to me. I remember having seen a discussion about on the Atom list (http://www.imc.org/atom-syntax/mail-archive/threads.html). ...
This strikes me as unnecessary as the namespace URI will identify the standard from which the markup is drawn. Also: are we banning markup from multiple...
Ahh, good point about having mixed markup in there. Can you send an Example of how this would look with the multiple markup types in a Headline? How is the...
... This is interesting. How many variants should we allow for and how restrictive should we be? My initial feeling is not to mix two different kind of markup...
Hi Laurent -- Do you have a written-out example of label markup from multiple namespaces, together with the namespace declarations? Hi Jayson -- I've just...
Hi Johan, I'm not thinking of alternative ways of expressing the same thing, using different standards. I'm thinking, rather, of situations where a standard...
First off, thanks to all for your replies on this matter. Though it could be currently possible to add in multiple markup types in a Newsline, I am wondering...
Hi all I understand there are some requests from sender side that wants to have multiple set of tools (=inline tag set). But let's think from receiver's side....
Hi Jayson I'm sorry previous email after you already realized it. My opinion might be radical... I think single, fixed and minimum tag set is preferable for...
This could be an example of markup in labels: Warning : fantasy syntax !!! <nml:item class="Picture"> <nml:head xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" ...
To me Dean's suggestion seems very reasonable. If you recall how the markup in labels got into the Business Requirements at all, we have said that the "basic"...
Hi everyone, At the danger of joining too late in the discussion and blowing the issue out of proportion, here are my thoughts. In my opinion a standard does...

Rather than reply to the recent mails individually, I'll try to respond to all the points in one mail: Are there example of multiple namespaces in use within...
Darko puts it most eloquently. At risk of gilding the lily: As far as I know there is an outstanding issue as to whether the NewsLine material can/should be...
Dear Takahiro, The issue with such a solution is that the burden goes to the receiving processing system: more lines of codes to handle both options. The exact...
Misha, The following fulfills the requirements 1/ definition of a minimal markup in NewsML (i.e. what is required, not more) and 2/ repetition in the content...
