Stephen Cresswell from The Stationery Office outlining:
Background
- legislation.gov.uk – 60k pieces of legislation for UK managed by the National Archives
- Publication in various formats – paper docs, pdf, xml, xhtml+RDFa, RDF
- TSO (The Stationery Office) currently redesigning workflows for legislation
Use cases/Requirements:
- Drafters of legislation (e.g. government departments) – “how is my job progressing though the publishing workflow?”
- Management information (aggregated) – “where are the bottlenecks in the publishing workflow”
- Maintainers may want to trace problems – “Which documents were derived from this XSLT?”
- Anyone might ask “Where did this document come from?”
- Acceptance test – re-run workflow from provenance graph (to prove that the provenance recorded is the true provenance – that re-running the same workflow results in the same outcome)
