The civil rights movement protested these injustices and activists like Rosa Parks helped challenge the segregationist laws and customs. Over time, the situation for African Americans gradually improved as civil rights legislation was passed and attitudes slowly changed, but racial conflicts and disparities continued to exist.

Why Open Web Standards are cool and will save the world. Or the Web, at least.brucelawson
Open web standards are beneficial because they make the full web accessible to more people and devices, reduce reliance on single vendors, and can increase profits. Some key benefits of open standards include being royalty-free and not tied to specific vendors. HTML5 introduces new form elements, canvas, video, and audio elements to standardize functionality without plugins. With tools like CSS media queries and W3C widgets, content can be adapted for different devices by using the browser as a platform instead of each device's native operating system, bringing the web to more users.

Web Accessibility: changes and developments over 10 years from a UK perspectiveDavid Sloan
The document summarizes the development of web accessibility over the past 10 years from a UK perspective in 4 stages:
1) Early days focused on guidelines to make the web accessible to disabled users.
2) Accessibility became part of web standards and was embraced by developers. Research showed guidelines were not enough.
3) Surveys found many sites still not conformant with guidelines, but some disabled users could use sites successfully. A holistic approach was needed.
4) Web 2.0 introduced new challenges. A practical view recognizes value of multiple formats. Tools now support inclusive authoring. Maintaining accessibility remains an ongoing challenge.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Editor's Notes
My name is Philip Poole I work at the British Museum as the Senior web developer Manage all technical work with a small team Includes following web standards
British Museum Worlds first public museum Opened in 1753 6 million visits a year Aim to make its collection accessible by the world Use the WWW to help do this: Website – large part of this strategy www.britishmuseum.org 28,000 pages 1.5 million records available online
Web standards what are they: - Standards have been used throughout history - This is a 13 th Century bronze weight in the form of a lioness, whose weight conforms to the Mesopotamian standard of the time. - standards are used from weights to the internet Image from: http://www.britishmuseum.org/research/search_the_collection_database/search_object_details.aspx?objectid=464307&partid=1&searchText=weight&fromADBC=ad&toADBC=ad&numpages=10&images=on&orig=%2fresearch%2fsearch_the_collection_database.aspx&currentPage=5
When we talk about standards, what are they? The W3C – The World Wide Web consortium publish standards which browsers then (or should implement) – does not always happen. Many standards but I will concentrate on - HTML – how content is marked up - CSS – how the content is shown / presented - Accessibility – making web pages accessible to all people The British Museum uses XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2.1 People are already starting to use HTML 5 and CSS3 for some project although they are not finalised yet. Also checkout: http://www.webstandards.org/
British Museum use standards In the constrains of our CMS Not religiously To create a website that is 100% standard compliment can result in a high effort (especially in the website is large – like the British Museum’s 28,000 pages and 1.5 million records). However to create a 99% standards compliment website is significantly less effort The last 1% of effort has the highest cost But you still get the benefits of standards without the final 1%. Source code from: http://www.britishmuseum.org/whats_on.aspx
What's in a webpage This page could be coded in many different ways and we could produce exactly the same output. However some ways of coding are better than others. Standards is one of the better ways But why use them? Page from: http://www.britishmuseum.org/whats_on.aspx
Standards save time and money? But how? Image from: http://www.britishmuseum.org/explore/highlights/highlight_objects/cm/g/gold_coins_and_ingots_from_the.aspx
How? In regards to maintenance of a website, you still need to code well, a badly coded standard based website will still have a high maintenance overhead. Even a small organisation will feel the benefits The benefits come from making changes and maintaining the website.
Cost of not using standards: Coding a website in standards ensures a firm foundation If you do not have this firm foundation you will find that you have a higher overhead to maintain the website As time goes on this overhead gets higher and tasks take longer Eventually the foundation will crumble and you either replace the website or pay a high cost to fix it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Leaning_tower_of_pisa_2.jpg
Benefits of a standard based website: A standards based website means that the website would have: Good SEO Accessible Work in more browsers Work in mobile phone browsers Also use Open Standards to increase the reach of your content
SEO: Increase your placements by Improve your ranking in search engines Through keywords, headers and text Standards with good keywords increase your placement Good accessibility improves the SEO further
SEO: Example on British Museum.org Explore section of approx 5000 objects written for the general public Migrated from an old website before modern web standards existed Pages did not appear in Google or other search engines Migrated the code into a standards format and most objects now appear on the first page of Google’s results Example for the museum page on the left: “Mosaic mask of Tezcatlipoca”, search “Mosaic mask” and the page appears in first 10 results of Google Links: http://www.britishmuseum.org/explore/highlights/highlight_objects/aoa/m/mosaic_mask_of_tezcatlipoca.aspx http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=Mosaic+mask+&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rlz=1R1GGGL_en-GB___GB345&client=firefox-a
Browsers: There are to may browsers to count (over 50) plus different operating systems including Windows and Mac. We test the website on browsers that 98.6% of our audience use This means we do not test for 1.4% of our audience. 1.4% includes a large amount of different browsers but in small amounts Large amount of effort to test for all of these. Coding with standards mean that the website should work for most other browsers. This is a picture of a page from our Moctezuma exhibition section of the website in FireFox, a browser we test for. http://www.britishmuseum.org/whats_on/future_exhibitions/moctezuma.aspx
This is the same page in Opera, a browser we do not test for. We honestly did not test or change this page to get it working This is because we use web standards. Now if we did not test 1.4% of people may not be able look at our website http://www.britishmuseum.org/whats_on/future_exhibitions/moctezuma.aspx
Browsers: 1.4% of audience is over 12,000 people on britishmuseum.org. If we did not use standards over 12,000 people may not be able to use the website, including buying tickets for the major exhibition of the year.
Mobile phones now support browsing the internet Increase use in this especially with the introduction of the iPhone and other high end mobiles (Palm Pre, Nokia etc) This will lead to: New audiences Different content will be required for mobiles Different audience segmentation (younger) The future: More devices supporting the web including: Wii Xbox 360 Set top boxes Standards based websites increase the chance of the website working on these new devices - future proofing your website.
From 2008 to 2009 compared to with 2007 to 2008 there are 25% more people using the website. 35,000 people a year compared to 8,000
Accessibility: A standards based website means you are well on the way to having an accessible website. You still need to make additional effort to have a completely accessible website. As a standards based, the British Museum website was already on the way for being accessible and while we built the front end we also took accessibility needs into account while coding
British Museum aims to make our website accessible to the widest possible audience includes Accessibility British Museum is a government institution so should be accessible including: - screen readers - Cognitive disabilities - motor impairment including keyboard only
British Museum had a project to audit the website for: Usability Accessibility Included people looking at the code as well as lab testing. (Cannot recommend lab testing enough.) Reported website was accessible but areas for improvement – but not too much additional work The usability audit and access were very closely aligned in pointing problems out on the website – accessibility testing can be seen as extreme usability testing Now we still need to make further improvements and we see this as a work in progress, for example improve our Collections database interface for instance
Also in regards to accessibility, standards based means you can alter the design more easily as well. Got a developer to work on an accessibility style sheet - for example, this will change this page too….
- Good for partially sited and people with dyslexia Will be integrating this into the website’s CMS some point in the future.
Using standards to increase access the reach of to your content: Very simply this can be with RSS feeds, similar to news feeds on BBC. RSS feeds make it easy for people to be told when there is something new to look at Other people and developers can also use the feeds to show your website information on other websites increasing the reach of your content and increasing audience. British Museum now offers RSS feeds on any page now, change the extension of the page to RSS and you get an RSS feed of all the child pages Now slowly starting to make these available to the public.
OpenSearch is an extension of RSS and has allowed us and 9 other museums to create a federated search which is in Beta at the moment. When you search you are searching across all 9 institutions. http://bm.nmolp.org/creativespaces/?searchTerms=mosaic+mask&page=search
You could create a website and ignore standards and then try and code good SEO into a website and then test and make sure it works in different browsers and then code to work in mobile browsers. But by making a standards based you have already done most of the work. This therefore means an standards based website saves you time and money and also provides: More traffic More revenue Different audiences
