REPLY TO 03/10/97 10:12 FROM [log in to unmask] "Encoded Archival Description List": EAD distribution problems Terry, EAD and SGML tools are so new that we're all novices! Did you get the new files from SoftQuad? There were problems that have been fixed. Also, make sure you follow the instructions about tweaks to be made for the location of the files that come in the Panorama sgmlpub directory. I've put the three files in the PUB directory of RLG's anonymous FTP site: lyra.rlg.org They are: ead.rls rlg.map rlgae.ini Ricky I've had recent (late Feb.) exchanges with SoftQuad, included so you know efforts are underway to address some of these problems: to SQ What has been done to notify unsuspecting buyers of this problem and how are they getting to the files? Any more information about which files in the Panorama directory sgmlpub need to be moved to other directories? Have you set up a support page for the SGML publishing suite specifically? It's getting harder to navigate around your web pages as you have more and more products.... from SQ SoftQuad has bought out another company called Alpha Software so we now have 5 more products and we are doing a major reconstruction of the site. I submitted my request quite a while ago. I will check on its status. to SQ We have constant problems with getting Panorama to load EAD files and the necessary support files and to not choke on the declaration. Sometimes it works; sometimes not -- but I get error messages in either case. Sometimes it works over the net and not on local files. The suspicious piece is that TEI files give me no problems. from SQ We now have the SGML Publishing Suite listed on our web site with information and prices. www.sq.com/products/ We will be adding the update files to the site shortly. We are still not sure where is the best place to put this information so I will be meeting with the web development group about this tomorrow. To: [log in to unmask]
