Title : Specification of the ANNODEX(TM) annotation format for
time-continuous bitstreams, Version 1.0
Author(s) : S. Pfeiffer, C. Parker
Filename : draft-pfeiffer-annodex-00.txt
Pages : 34
Date : 2003-6-9
This specification defines a file format for annotating and indexing
time-continuous bitstreams for the World Wide Web. The format has
been named ANNODEX(TM) for annotating and indexing. The ANNODEX(TM)
format enables the specification of named anchor points in
time-continuous bitstreams together with textual annotations and
hyperlinks in URI [4] format. These anchor points are merged
time-synchronously with the time-continuous bitstreams on authoring a
file in ANNODEX(TM) format. The ultimate aim of the ANNODEX(TM)
format is to enable an integration of time-continous bitstreams into
the browsing and searching functionality of the World Wide Web.
At this point in time, the right to produce derivative works is not
granted to the IETF as the authors are uncertain about the necessity
to create a working group. The specification is not encumbered by
patents. The ANNODEX(TM) format is protected by a trademark to
prevent the use of the term 'annodex' for any related but
non-conformant and therefore non-interoperable technology.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
