UEB includes very little formatting. The biggest change to Formats 2011 will be updating the examples to conform to UEB. There WILL be some changes to the content as well...but the majority of BF2011 will not change. The BANA Formats Committee is about halfway through BF2011 with their review. The goal is to finish by the end of 2014, though that is a very lofty goal, and does not include the approval process by the BANA board. The sections I expect to change the most (in content) will be emphasis and footnotes, and that is largely due to the fact that those sections define symbols which may conflict with UEB symbols or symbol construction.
Many are working on being trained. I don't think there is a list anywhere of those who have gone through any of the materials available from different countries (Canada, Australia). I would hesitate to say anyone is completely proficient at it yet - though I know several who are very good at it. Even with working on training materials, I would not say I am proficient at working in it. I can do it, but it takes longer than if I work with EBAE as my base language. NLS is working (through NFB) on putting together training and certification materials. Stay tuned for more info!
Well, I went to look for it and it is no longer there. So sorry about that! They are working on a list...stay tuned.
Cindi"The BANA website has tried to keep an ongoing list of people who are doing training." Really? That would be great. I can't find the list, however. Can you tell us exactly where it is? Thanks.
Yes. Definitely. There is a BANA taskforce that has been set up to define guidelines for how the two codes will co-exist. We are planning to show a draft copy of these guidelines at the conference in Milwaukee - on Saturday afternoon.

The 'K' in Keystone is larger - thus the word in not in full caps in print (or in braille).
Yes, you are correct about the city/state. We considered Pearson Longman as a separate entity from Pearson Education.
The url SHOULD be shown. Line 7 should hold the publisher name and line 8 should have the url (using CBC code).
