Digital Humanities Observatory Summer School 2010

It is that time of year again and the DHO summer school is on again. This time there are 80 participants from 12 countries. It is a great mix and there is much news and many ideas to share.

I am in the XSLT course with Laura Mandell and Dana Wheeles - today was excellent - we all got to do a text transformation - and then played around with that - getting to know xsl in the meantime creating internal and external links, footnotes, using different fonts...

So we covered XPath and xsl with an introduction to and practical workshop in xslt so we have achieved a lot in one day - all with wonderful support and great questions from the group teasing out the minutiae of the detail.

I am looking forward to tomorrow - the bar was set high today!
