Chiba is a markup language I’m currently working on, which is inspired by many other markup languages, including the syntax used by HTML, SDF, POD, lout, AFT, APT, Wiki, DocBook, and of course, LaTeX. It’s written in Haskell.

It’s nowhere near finished (and don’t hold your breath), but the framework is currently there. Some very simple functions have been written, so it’s currently possible to convert a Chiba DOM to HTML markup.

Here, you can find all the source code for my presentation in the chiba-20020603.tar.gz file, or you can browse the contents of the tarball . The actual presentation can be downloaded in two formats:

• on-line presentation, with overlays
• printable format
