MRML Specifications

Version 0.1 Version 1.0 Version 2.0 Extensions Open Issues

Version 0.1
^

This MRML initial version is the one to use currently. It corresponds to the spirit we wished to set for MRML:
  • Simple, easy-to-grasp specification
  • Easy and quick to implement
  • Robust to extensions and modifications

Version 1.0
^

This MRML initial version is the one to use currently. It corresponds to the spirit we wished to set for MRML:
  • Simple, easy-to-grasp specification
  • Easy and quick to implement
  • Robust to extensions and modifications

Version 2.0
^

The goal of this new version of MRML is to build on the experience we acquired from the use of version 1.0. In summary, the requirements of version 2.0 are:
  • Better use of XML capabilities and context
  • More formal extension procedure
  • To accomodate server administration
  • (from version 1.0)Simple, easy-to-grasp specification
  • (from version 1.0)Easy and quick to implement
  • (from version 1.0)Robust to extensions and modifications
For short, this second version is a cleanup of the initial specification rather than its bring new features.
