Come to Balisage: The Markup Conference
where we talk about all things markup - popular and unpopular

Previous Balisage conferences have included papers about:

overlap, and markup of overlapping structures
SGML, XML, XSLT, XSL-FO, XPath, LaTeX, SVG, XForms, XLink, XProc, iXML
unsolved problems and unmet needs
schema languages
topic maps
HyTime
edge cases and the needs of very few users
standoff markup
markup after XML
high volume commercial use
LLMs in markup applications
single user projects
markup in publishing, scholarship, manufacturing, health care, banking
modeling
sustainability/longevity
page layout
testing

Edge cases and minor irritations sometimes become mainstream when the problems
are solved. Markup users can learn interesting and useful things from people
who use markup and markup-related tools in unfamiliar contexts and with
unfamiliar requirements.
