hey Wendell
Many thanks for your reply.
We are working with docx files that need to be translated into HTML. The
docx files are chapters of scholarly content that constitute a book. We
need to translate the docx into a tidy HTML version with direct
translation of semantic elements but with the elimination of styles.
Later I would hope we could do a number of things:
1. use this baseline conversion stylesheet on scientific articles (this
includes addressing math, tables, and figures)
2. write a parser to evaluate a document and try and re-structure it
according to the *intended* semantics of the author (the best way to do
this tbd).
We will have a need for XML down the line (both docx->JATS and
htnml->JATS) but not right now...
Let me know if you can recommend anyone. We would like to get cracking
on it! ;) I'm happy to set up a call with you or whoever you know that
might be of interest..
Many thanks again for your reply. Much appreciated.

Hi Adam,
Due to prior commitments into the summer, I am not available full
time, but I might know someone who could help you if you can tell me
more. Feel free to look at my web site http://wendellpiez.com to see
my own background.
As you perform your search, what I expect you will find is that XMLers
often end up very "tribal", i.e. TEI, DITA, JATS/BITS, various
vertical domains, etc. etc. all end up with their own specialists who
don't necessarily know other XMLers outside their clan. Plus, XSLT
people surprisingly don't know XQuery people, and vice versa, etc.
etc.
With this in mind, it would be interesting to know your position
vis-a-vis questions of formats and XML standards -- e.g. if you expect
to be working a lot with JATS/BITS, there is a JATS mailing list to
which you might be directed.
Regards, Wendell
