[xsl] Free Boredom Relief ...

2010-10-09 17:51:13
I'm trying to float an idea with the W3C eGOV IG and have an XML file begging 
for clever XSLT presentations.

Consensus in particular, and metadata in general breaks Relativity. When a 
Government issues a number (a statistic), it takes 24 hours (forward) for the 
world to see and a second or so (forward) for the Consensus to go back to the 
Government.  Quantum Mechanics has particle and wave flavors, and you solve 
this one with waves.  You compute a virtual arrival time so that the 
information seems to arrive at the entities in alphabetical order, then they 
are encouraged to shut up until it's time to vote.  It sounds harder than it is 
(sorry).  Short story: this eliminates the need for latitude and longitude when 
publishing statistics (they have bad personal privacy side-effects).

I posted an XML data file, and an explanation.
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-egov-ig/2010Oct/0021.html

This has the structure of the EU, with all countries and known subdivisions.  
You can use XSLT to make an envelope for statistics (the inner-most <data>).

Any comments welcome, but I just get the digest so forgive me if I don't answer 
for 24 Hours + 1 Second.
