Dear list members,
a question: is anyone going to the TEI 2019 meeting/conference?
Please let me know if you’re planning to come, I’d set up a meeting of
our Indic-Texts SIG.
See https://graz-2019.tei-c.org/ for details on the conference.
With best wishes,

Dear all,
I was inspired by Dr. Dhaval Patel's recent efforts to make digital
versions of important Sanskrit lexicons available (
https://github.com/sanskrit-kosha/kosha) to do something similar for the
two Prakrit lexicons that I have had on my computer for a while:
https://github.com/aso2101/prakrit_lexicons
This includes Dhanapāla’s Pāiyalacchī (in plain text form) and Hēmacandra’s
Dēśīnāmamālā (in TEI form). I had planned to publish them only when I had
created dictionary data from each, but others will be able to do this more
expeditiously than I would be. (The TEI data for Hēmacandra should make the
extraction of lemmata and definitions relatively straightforward.) Any
feedback would be greatly appreciately.
Andrew
