I'd like to make TBL's Semantic Web happen, so I'm helping out in a small way: I converted my resume to XML. I'm using the dtd at http://xmlresume.sourceforge.net/ , largely because it showed up higher on Google than any other. How's that for a fancy product selection process? AndersenAccenture, eat your heart out!

To get emacs' nxml mode to validate the resume I had to convert the resume dtd to RELAX NG syntax. I used "trang":

$ java -jar bin/trang.jar -I dtd -O rnc downloads/resume-1_5_1/dtd/resume.dtd lisp/nxml-mode-20041004/schema/resume151.rnc 

I had to hack the generated output slightly: it insisted that the only valid document element was resumes when according to the DTD resume is also valid.

then add the resume type to nxml's database of schemas:
