Bugfix for Roma available for testing
by Martin Holmes 29 Nov '15

29 Nov '15

Hi all, A new Roma is here: <http://www.tei-c.org/Roma-4.18/> with my minor bugfix for the title element included, along with other things (I know not exactly what) that had been added since the last release found its way onto tei-c in 2013. If you have any experience with Roma at all, please give it a bit of a go to make sure nothing is broken. Cheers, Martin

A decision we have to take on oxygen-tei
by Martin Holmes 11 Nov '15

11 Nov '15

We're faced with a rather difficult decision with regard to the oxygen-tei plugin. The Oxygen guys have introduced a lot of new features, especially relating to CSS usage in Author mode (as far as I understand it), and they've made a point of using jTEI as one of their examples. However, their new stuff only works on Oxygen 17.1. They've put it in a branch on oxygen-tei: <https://github.com/TEIC/oxygen-tei/tree/update_oxygen_17_1> Our plugin currently works on versions going back to 15.2. If we merge these exciting new changes, then people using older versions of Oxygen will suddenly get an update that breaks or won't install (I don't know exactly what will happen). However, if we don't update, we'll be in the rather odd situation that Oxygen's release will always be more advanced than our version of our plugin, which makes our plugin sort of pointless, since the main reason for it is to exist is to enable users to get a more up-to-the-minute version of the plugin. I'm tempted to say that it might be time to retire our "official" TEI release of the plugin entirely. We could offer a bleeding-edge preview release of the plugin, based on our dev branches, which we would us for testing and would encourage savvy users with a need to get the absolute latest-and-greatest to install; but otherwise we would just rely on Oxygen's steady release cycle to keep the majority of our users up to date. That would mean a brief lag between the time that we do a major release and Oxygen does, when users of Oxygen would have no easy way to get the latest-and-greatest P5 and Stylesheets. But it would make our lives simpler. Cheers, Martin

2.9.0 in Vault

Can everyone who’s able take a look at http://www.tei-c.org/Vault/P5/2.9.0/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ <http://www.tei-c.org/Vault/P5/2.9.0/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/> It looks ok to me… Need to step away while I go pick the kids up, but should be able to resume in an hour if I don’t hear screams from anyone.

Two more pages updated
by Martin Holmes 02 Nov '15

02 Nov '15

I've updated these two pages: <http://www.tei-c.org/Guidelines/P5/> <http://www.tei-c.org/Guidelines/P5/get.xml> If anyone has five minutes to give them a read, let me know if you see anything that needs fixing. Kevin, I hope I haven't trodden on your feet there; I figured that while I was doing other stuff involving SF to GitHub, I might as well do these. Both pages, but especially the second, have some very ancient and perhaps now obsolete sections that really need looking at, especially as we're making decisions about what to do with the deb packages. Cheers, Martin

TEI GitHub RSS feed
by Raffaele Viglianti 02 Nov '15

02 Nov '15

Martin mentioned getting RSS feeds from the repo earlier; Tom Elliot subscribed the other day to the *releases* atom: https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/releases.atom which could still be useful to show on the teic website. Sadly, GitHub doesn't seem to have a RSS feed for issues, but we *could* build one via their API. Raff

Build stylesheet dependencies
by Stefan Majewski 01 Nov '15

01 Nov '15

Hi all, as I was trying to figure out which Stylesheets are actually used in the build of the guidelines I tracked all imports (recursively) in the xsl that are used during the build. The basis for this has been everything in P5/Utilities/*.xsl and the stylesheets based on guidelines-latex.xsl and guidelines-latex.xsl and guidelines.xsl.model. That is actually less than I expected. Here, the list of what I got: Stylesheets/common/common_core.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_figures.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_gaiji.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_header.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_linking.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_msdescription.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_param.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_tagdocs.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_textcrit.xsl Stylesheets/common/common_textstructure.xsl Stylesheets/common/common.xsl Stylesheets/common/functions.xsl Stylesheets/common/i18n.xsl Stylesheets/common/verbatim.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_core.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_figures.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_gaiji.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_header.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_linking.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_msdescription.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_param.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_textcrit.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common_textstructure.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/common.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/functions.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/i18n.xsl Stylesheets/html5/common/verbatim.xsl Stylesheets/html5/html5.xsl Stylesheets/html5/html/html_param.xsl Stylesheets/html5/html/html.xsl Stylesheets/html5/textstructure.xsl Stylesheets/html/html_oddprocessing.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_core.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_corpus.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_drama.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_figures.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_header.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_linking.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_namesdates.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_nets.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_param.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_tagdocs.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_textcrit.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_textstructure.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_transcr.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex_verse.xsl Stylesheets/latex/latex.xsl Stylesheets/odds/classatts.xsl Stylesheets/odds/extract-isosch.xsl Stylesheets/odds/guidelines.xsl Stylesheets/odds/odd2dtd.xsl Stylesheets/odds/odd2html.xsl Stylesheets/odds/odd2json.xsl Stylesheets/odds/odd2lite.xsl Stylesheets/odds/odd2odd.xsl Stylesheets/odds/odd2relax.xsl Stylesheets/odds/odd2xslstripspace.xsl Stylesheets/odds/teiodds.xsl TEIGIT/P5/p5examples.isosch.xsl TEIGIT/P5/p5odds.isosch.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/expand.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/extractegXML.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/guidelines.latex.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/guidelines.web.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/iso_schematron_message_xslt2.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/iso_schematron_skeleton_for_saxon.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/iso_svrl_for_xslt2.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/listgraphics.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/listofattributes.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/listspecwithnoexample.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/prevalidator.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/subset.xsl TEIGIT/P5/Utilities/validator.xsl >From what I can see common, html5, latex and odds are core to the guidelines build and should deserve special care from the council. I propose that this could be reflected in the structure of the Stylesheets repository. What do you think? Are there others in the same league I have missed? kind regards, Stefan

Paderborn Jenkins
by Peter Stadler 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Dear all, I just finished setting up a new TEI Jenkins build server at the University of Paderborn: http://nagano.upb.de:7042 Thanks to Martin and Hugh for the excellent build script which made it very easy to set up! I have not created an apache virtualhost yet, but I think that should be the next step (for all Jenkins servers) when the subdomain jenkins.tei-c.org is set up. Who is taking care of this?! Best Peter

small fixes to the oxygen-tei repo
by Peter Stadler 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Dear all, I had problems building the tei-oxygen plugin with Oracle Java 8. Alex (from oxygen) pointed me at a missing jar which I simply added to the lib folder within the tei-oxygen repo. Honestly, I have no idea of this java stuff and just did as I was told and it seems to work (on the Jenkins machines). It’s a little bit weired, since the missing class (BundleActivator) was never included in a JDK so the error should have popped up much earlier … Thought I’d mention this … Best Peter

We seem to be all green on Jenkins again. Yay! Now we can focus on whether we should be checking ids/idrefs or not. Cheers, Martin On 2015-10-30 12:26 AM, Victoria TEI Jenkins wrote: > See <http://teijenkins.hcmc.uvic.ca/job/TEIP5/2262/> >
