Louis, can you give us an update on the status of Behold 1.1 & perhaps update the future development plan?

Standardizing Sources and Citation Templates - Blog comment by ennoborg - 31 Aug 2014
One difficult thing here is that users of products like RootsMagic, and especially those who have expanded the included set of 400+ templates to the 1100+ mentioned in EE, will expect that they're supported by the standard, while at the same time our costs to support those are too high, like I already found out ...

Enno,
Using source types based on generalized media types as you mention is one way to do it that would work. I agree that going to the micro level is way too much and unnecessary. Doing so can be done by those who create the citation templates as a separate step from the creation of the data transfer ...

Louis, thanks. I see that Tony has returned from Italy too.
You may have seen that on the FHISO list, I criticized the use of source types as a selector for templates. You mention 170 types in the Yates EE-style templates, and I wrote that ESM lists 1100+ record types on the EE site, and assuming that those ...

Enno,
Got your countries fixed. The cache was stuck. Took me a while to find where it was hidden, but I did and cleaned it out.

Enno,

And there is something still caching your country wrong. I shall find it.

Louis, thanks for elaborating things in your text. You'd probably need to buy a new marker if it were real.

Enno,
Thanks for pointing out the country problem. I'm using ip2nation.com's database and I haven't updated it in a while. I hadn't noticed too many problems before. I'll try to update it when I get a chance.
In the meantime, enjoy your stay in Poland. :-)

Enno,
Re #4: An "author" or "auteur" or "автор" all mean the same thing. But like I said for Tony, the standard needs to just use one term that the programmer will best understand. But it does not matter what it is called in the standard. It could be called "XYXXXZZ, as long as the meaning of it and how ...
