Lessons learned and challenges ahead
Breaking the “I can do it in MS Word” catch
XML adoption enables new services: Collaboration and concurrency on specific text chunks
Semi-automated text consolidation
Over the shoulder translation
Structured content imply extensive changes in the way we all work
e-Parliament XML adoption - March 2014
Lessons learned and challenges ahead
The effort required from a stakeholder may not always be linked to her own direct benefit
Cooperation between business, maintenance and development teams is essential
Inter-institutional adoption of common standards
and tools can streamline the legislative processCOM proposals in XML
Council agreements (4-colums document)…
