FoLiA v1.2

• Support for in-document metadata in any foreign namespace (see section 2.11 of the manual)
• Support for foreign namespace annotation using the foreign-data element (see section 2.10.15 of the manual)
• Native FoLiA metadata does not formally predefine any fields (but various tools may)
• Extended linebreak element (br) with newpage,pagenr and linenr attributes. Element can now be used to signal page breaks. (see section 2.5.6 of the manual)
• Alignments (alignment) now allows pointing to external documents that are not FoLiA, using the format attribute in combination with the already existing xlink:href attribute. (see section 2.10.8 of the manaul)
  • aref/@type is now a free field, the type needs not correspond to a FoLiA element anymore. Necessary to allow linking to external resources.
• Similarly, references (ref) can now link to external resources using xlink attributes and the format attributes. (See section 2.5.12 of the manual)
• Xlink support has been extended to include attributes like xlink:role etc.. These are now allowed on all xlink-capable elements.
• Example document (test/example.xml) has been brought in line with some extra tests conducted by the libfolia library.
