GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 136472
Support for Papyrus
Last modified: 2017-12-22 12:45:47 UTC
Papyrus (http://papyrus.treshna.com/) is a GPL-licensed XML-based database report generator. It has an XML format that describes a way of generating an report from a database, along with a program that generates the report in a variety of formats. There are various ways we could support Papyrus within Conglomerate: the File->New assistant could have a "Papyrus Report Template" option, we can create a display specification for the format (though unfortunatley it doesn't seem to have its own namespace or DTD), and add a tool "Generate Report" to the tools menu.... etc

Created attachment 25321 [details] DTD file for papyrus
Added the dtd to as an attachement. Will releaes a new version with dtd and any dtd changes to papyrus made later on today.
I'm hoping for a permanent http address for the DTD, so that we can look for header information like this: <!DOCTYPE report PUBLIC "-//treshna.com//DTD Papyrus V0.1//EN" "http://www.treshna.com/fubar/papyrus.dtd"> Or something like that...

Conglomerate is not under active development anymore. It is currently unlikely that there will be any further Conglomerate development. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping (bug 685689) to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
