This post is partially in response to messages 2443 and 2444 partially
a request for input from the community. We have been working on an XML
Schema for NewsML 1.2, yet have an issue reported by early testers
regarding the use of an XML namespace. There was a lengthy
conversation regarding this issue at our meeting this past week in
Tokyo Japan, though it remains unresolved and any input or assistance
is welcome.

So first, in response to the two recent messages, yes the namespace,
should it be adopted would be:

http://iptc.org/std/NewsML/2003-10-10/

However there seems to be a compatibility issue when this is used, as
instances created with the namespace are technically not the same as
instances created without the namespace. The early testers of the XML
Schema found that if a database schema is generated using the XML
Schema with the namespace, instance documents created without the
namespace are not able to be insert into this database schema without
errors.

Several options for the release of this XML schema have been
discussed, including:

- release the schema without a namespace
- release the schema with a namespace
- release the schema with a namespace and provide an XSL Template to
add the namespace to instance documents

We are interested in hearing of your experiences and in receiving any
input you have regarding this issue.

Thank you

Jayson

Is the following good to use?

what is the XML namespace for the NewsML.xsd? (NewsML 1.2)

Sean:

Thanks for the suggestion.  This suggestion works well.

I think breaking up an article by forcing one story flow into different
NewsComponents is overkill.  If you are using NITF for your
NewsComponent's text data/content, use NITF <block> elements for your
paginated pieces of a story inside the "flow" of a single text
NewsComponent, and use NewsML NewsComponent elements for sidebars,
pull-out quotes, etc (related to but not part of the copy-flow of the
story).

Anyway, this is how I would do this.  It may even be possible to have
your editorial tools influence where these blocks are broken up (similar
to managing jumps in print).

We have a provider who would like to send a newsml document to be
displayed as a multiple page document on the web with pagination.

Is there a recommended way to do this in NewsML?

One suggestion is to put the entire article in a multiple
NewsComponents, one for the whole article, and a separate one for each
subpage.

Hi Sean, Laurent,

UsageRights subtreee can be used for corss-media permission.  FYI,
although there is no controlled vocabulary,  UsageRights subtree is not
a perfect for automatic processing everywhere.

If you want to do with Status element for it, create a new NewsItem with
NewsComponent which has NewsItemRef elements.  The referred NewsItem has
a real content.  In case of cross-media, I think the contents will be
not the same one - e.g. short text and small picture for PDA, middle
length text and picture for Web, long text and large picture for paper.
So NewsItemRef is a reasonable resolution, I think.

As Sean said, you can use Property element for any purpose, including
geographic data.  In this case, you have to inform the use of Property
element to your receiver.

Regards,
NewsML1 vice chair

Hi Sean,

Re 1. NewsItemType is a basic indication of the type of Item: values are
News, Data, Advisory, Alert ... NewsItemType is completed by a multiple
Genre element which indicates the editorial nature or form (or flavor)
of the content. A "film review" is a genre.

Re information mashups (e.g. an article about a place + geographic
data), NewsML1.x is not oriented this way: this is one of the main
NewsML-G2 new feature. Join http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/newsml-g2
if you are interested.

Re the question "can multiple Property elements use the same FormalName
attribute (since FormalName is a string in schema, not an IDREF)"?
The answer is yes: it makes a provider defined property repeatable.

Re status repeatable, you're the first raising this idea I think. It is
neither covered by NewsML1.x not currently by NewsML-G2. Be careful:
this Status is useful for the exchange of news in a B2B environment, not
for an internal workflow (it seems that your use case is linked to
internal workflows).

Hi NewsML folks. I'm working on a NewsML content serialization/export
system for an online CMS, and have noticed two model limitations in the
NewsML 1.2 NewsManagement element that I'm interested in getting input
on (for workarounds or best practices):

1. NewsItemType is singular.  This only expresses an "is a" relationship
for an item.  Some content models need "as a" relationships to
supplement this.  Specifications like JSR-170 (Java Content Repository)
call these "mixins" - my Python/Zope based CMS calls them "flavors."  An
item might be a "story" type, but be "film review" or "press release" as
a flavor.  Items may have more than one "flavor" - for example, we have
instances of articles that are both "restaurant profile" and "bar
profile" - where we are reviewing an establishment that is both a bar
and a restaurant.  For cross-media journalism, many problems cease to
look as simple as "articles" alone: a "story" might also be an event
profile with fielded calendar data, or information about a place with
geographic data for map mashups.  I'm assuming I can use Property
elements to represent this (in NewsManagement or in in
DescriptiveMetadata for a NewsComponent), but can multiple Property
elements use the same FormalName attribute (since FormalName is a string
in schema, not an IDREF)?

2. Status is singular.  A cross-media workflow might have per-product or
per-activity status.  An item in production for print might have
different status in print ("story is published, plated") than online
("story is waiting for online people to create a flash applet around the
packaged graphic originally produced for print") - if one had a need to
represent multiple state names for different processes using the same
content item in a single NewsML file, how would one do this?  The only
way I can think of doing this is multiple NewsItem elements (one per
process/activity/product in a workflow) with references back to
NewsComponent elements containing actual content in a single canonical
NewsItem within in the file, but this seems really messy (is there a
better way?).

Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Sean

Jumping some replies to this initial posting I want to remind:

- "foo.example.org" is of course a domain. Remember the layered structure
of the DNS. "org" is a "top level domain", "example.org" is a second level
domain and the example above is simply a subdomain of "example.org" ...
and so on.

- By a formal approach using "foo.example.org" for a RFC 3085 URN does not
violate the RFC as long as information about the "owner" of a domain is
available.

- The bad thing with DNS is that there is not any specification for
providing this kind of administrative information. All the Whois
information is managed by a system of rules beyond the technical DNS
specs. So DNS would work for any domain on a technical level even without
a single entry about the ownership. Hence we have to think about rules
dealing with this administrative information - and we have to be aware
that many European NICs disclose less and less information about the owner
of a domain for privacy reasons.

A rule I can think about is based on the requirement that at least for the
second level domains a "whois" information is mandatory. If no such
information is provided for a subdomain of a second-level domain the
administrative information for the second-level domain applies.

Jeff,

NewsML is content agnostic. You can use either NITF or XHTML as text markup.
NITF has specific entity markup (person, org etc...) with the indication of a
schema and code in the scheme. With XHTML you must for now create a micro-format
with span, or as you say use elements from an external namespace.

Do you think that NewsML should standardize this matter?

In the NewsML1.x header you can group information about these entities via the
TopicOccurrence and Topic properties (see NewsML guidelines p.12).
Note: NewsML-G2 makes it easier to structure (see the News Architecture model
documents).

NewsML1.2 guidelines: http://www.newsml.org/pages/docu_main.php

We want to be able to take our NewsML documents and mark up words and
phrases in the text with a tag that identifies it as an external entity.

Example:

<p>The <entity id="8900980">Chicago Bears</entity> will play in the
Super Bowl on Sunday.</p>


Somewhere else in the NewsML document, we want to provide additional
metadata about those entities, referenced by the id that each entity
is tagged with.

Is there an existing facility for representing this data in NewsML or
should we just add a namespace and add our own markup on top of NewsML?

Thanks,

Jeff

Sorry, I've sent unfinished message by mistake  :-<

Did we ever define a MIME type for NewsML 1.x ?

On the web I've found only

text/vnd.IPTC.NewsML

This is mentioned on few various places (e.g.
http://kb.mediatemple.net/article.php?id=151 )

Should I use these or we have a better one (at least application/something)
?

Go for it.  The whole point of the "vnd.IPTC" tree is that you are

The NewsML 1 Maintenance Group of the IPTC got aware of an issue while
opening and validating NewsML 1.0 or 1.1 instances with Altova's XMLspy
2006:

** When you open and validate a NewsML 1.0/1.1 instance with a DOCTYPE
identifier "urn:newsml:iptc.org:20001006:NewsMLv1.0:1" or
"urn:newsml:iptc.org:20021018:NewsMLv1.1:1" all versions of XMLspy version
2006 throw an error saying the DTD file could not be found. This applies
even to NewsML 1.0/1.1 instances with an explicit path set to the DTD
file.

** Reason for the problem:
- XMLspy supports OASIS catalogs - search the XMLspy help for "Catalog"

- the data for this catalog is provided by the file  MainCatalog.xml in
the application directory of XMLspy 2006

- the catalog file delivered with XMLspy 2006 contains an error, at line ~
140 it reads:

<!-- XML Catalog data for NewsML V1.0 and 1.1 -->
	 <public publicId="urn:newsml:iptc.org:20021018:NewsMLv1.1.dtd:1"
uri="schemas/NewsML/NewsMLv1.1.dtd"/>
	 <public publicId="urn:newsml:iptc.org:20001006:NewsMLv1.0.dtd:1"
uri="schemas/NewsML/NewsMLv1.0.dtd"/>
<!-- End of XML Catalog data for NewsML V1.0 and 1.1-->

... but the .\Schemas\NewsML directory under the application directory
holds only the NewsML 1.2 DTD and no DTD for v 1.0 or v 1.1.

** Workaround:

- option 1: add the NewsML 1.0/1.1 DTD - provided as attachment to this
message - to the  .\Schemas\NewsML directory. (Also available from the
Files section of the NewsML Yahoo group.)

- option 2: comment out or delete both NewsML entries of the
MainCatalog.xml file.

** Note on XMLSpy 2007

Last week Altova rolled out its latest XMLspy version 2007. The
MainCatalog.xml file has a reference to version 1.2 of NewsML only now and
the corresponding DTD is present the .\Schemas\NewsML directory.
