More specifics on where javascript comes in would be useful. Sj talk 16:37, 2 June 2007 (EDT)
Comment: I don't know whether you have seen marginalia which already uses an Atom based format? I used this when building annotater -- a python wsgi application for doing annotation. You can see this in action on this page on Open Shakespeare. Some of further discussion of the issues can be found in: this thread and this post --RufusPollock Open Knowledge Foundation
I haven't looked at those closely, though I need to do so. I believe Joshua Gay had some experience with Marginalia. I've yet to see an actual documented use of Atom for annotation, as Atom does not address the particular needs of annotation directly. It has to be extended or its conventions repurposed in some way. So several systems use Atom, but frustratingly none of them say how. -- Ian Bicking 17:21, 24 July 2007 (EDT)
