add “sig” tag to output

this has been added to the meta file, should be added to the xml so that the anthology can ingest it automatically

#15 added a sig tag to the meta file. We should add this to the XML file that is ingested by the Anthology. Currently, this is hard, because:

  • anthologize/anthologize.pl generates the PDFs and BibTeX files using the meta file
  • anthologize/anthology_xml.py then takes those bibs and generates an XML file

anthology_xml.py does not have access to the meta file. A simple solution would be to copy it, which might be good since we'd also like to add a <shortbooktitle> field (acl-org/acl-anthology#567). We could then update the script to output that data in the <meta> block of the XML. I'm not sure if there's a better way.

Would it be bad to add sig and shortbooktitle as extra fields in the BibTeX?

That’s a good approach. Extracting the info would proceed the same way we do for the book title then.

I'm closing this, since this is quite easy to handle in the Anthology now with #28.
