... Well, XFML and Facetmap use a model that is the same, we just use different terminology :) In the wine example, searching for "A. Mano 2000 Puglia...
... Ah! This explains why in Peter's demo - loading my Radio generated XFML - it was referring to my topics as facets. I was going to post about that...
Hi Peter, ... specific ... of 3 ... a ... is ... by ... can ... different ... I'm afraid the diamond analogy isn't very clear..! :) Also I think its a pretty...
Okay I'm definitely interested in XFML for liveTopics, but something I haven't resolved in my mind yet is this: How do I model themes? A theme is a grouping of...
... Yes. But we have that problem with "taxonomy" as well :) I don't want to get lost in discussions about which definition makes more sense right now :) ... ...
... OK, let's work this out. The defining thing about a "facet" in XFML (and in library science) is that it is an *exclusive* container of topic trees. See...
... to get lost in discussions about which definition makes more sense right now :) ... Okay then for the sake of clarity I think your "Conceptual model" ...
Hi, De XUGO group (http://www.cranesoftwrights.com/xugo/) in Ottawa, Canada is looking for someone to do a presentation on XFML. If someone is interested (it's...
Hi all, I am a pretty lousy software engineer. I want to build a real XFML app - something that will make it easy for someone to manage large amounts of ...
Hi Peter, I hope you don't mind my saying so but I think this is the wrong approach. I'm sure you won't have any difficulty finding a programmer willing to...

... Hey Matt, Good point. As most formats, XFML did come into existence to solve a specific problem: how to generate navigation to many related websites,...
... Interesting point. How I imagined this working is: the "root topic" is just the facet. In a facet "Places to go", there is no real need for a root topic...
Hi Peter, I'm afraid that what I see when I go to your XFML Manager is a database and not an application. I can't see what any of the USER's that I know would...
... I very much agree with the user focus Matt - I'm an information architect and do lots of usability tests. I even have personas, task analysis and a mental...
I added the following text to the definition of a facet in the spec: [...] To avoid confusion, note that the term "facets" is being used to mean different...
Hi Peter, Maybe I'm being pedantic but I would argue that what you are describing is a goal, or ideal, and not a value. Value is subjective and, hence, it...
Hi Peter, ... how to word it? ... Well 'value proposition' would be a valid term but looks somewhat out of place in a specification like this. It's not...
What I'm really trying to say is why XFML is special, what makes it worthwhile, why it is different... "vision" doesn't sound quite right either... PeterV...

Very nice :) I tried it with the example file and it worked nicely :) Thanks! I'll put it on the website when launching the spec. DO you want a link to your...

Glad you like it! It's not very exciting output. I'm planning on playing around with some dhtml display for the transformation when I get some free time. This...
