Papers at the Balisage 2008 conference will discuss a wide variety of topics. I have just received a draft of the topic list for the Balisage proceedings, and see that it is divided into Actions, Concepts, and Specifications, and into specifics with those categories.

The most frequent Actions are: transforming, Querying, Publishing, Parsing, and Linking.

The most frequent Concepts include: Modeling, Interoperability, Semantic Web, Concurrent Markup, and Knowledge Representation.

The most frequently mentioned Specifications are: Topic Maps, XSD/W3c Schema, XML, TexMECS, SAX, RDF, and DOM.
