xmLegesEditor: an OpenSource Visual XML Editor for supporting Legal National Standards

Abstract

Abstract. The NormeinRete (NIR) project aims at providing improved accessibility to normative documents. To this end XML and URN standards have been estabilished for norms representation and identification. In this paper xmLegesEditor, an Open Source visual XML editor providing a unified access to software tools for supporting the adoption of NIR standards, is presented. Thanks to its modularity and flexibility xmLegesEditor can be reused as a developing platform for supporting any XML standard and in particular other Legislative XML standards.
