About

This page documents the mark-up language used to keep meta data for interviews recorded by the Our_Stories activity.

The fields would be useful for categorization and searching of the collected audio clips.

some of the fields would be automatically generated during interview recording, ie date and file reference (and probably language and country of origin / geo-data, as those could be automatically appended by the school servers). Other fields, such as description fields and keyword tags would be optionally entered from either the children recording the interviews, or filled in by the teachers or other volunteers reviewing the stories.

Quick Example

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<ourstories version="0.1">
  <story date="2007-10-29 07:13:04" 
         oggfile="/home/olpc/ourstories/story_filename.ogg" 
         title="story_title"/>
</ourstories>
