No meeting Thursday
by Hugh Cayless 08 Dec '17

08 Dec '17

Hi All, Given that we just had our face-to-face, I don't think there's any need for a telecon this month, unless anyone objects strongly? I've had no expressions of interest in taking over the Chair position, so also a gentle reminder about that... Hugh

stylesheets attack group meeting
by Syd Bauman 07 Dec '17

07 Dec '17

I'm planning on keeping the Stylesheets group in the mode of using work on stylesheets as a self-educational methodology (as opposed to the mission of actually working on stylesheets) for our Dec meeting this coming Thu 12-07. As mentioned at the Council F2F, we would like to re-schedule to Tuesdays at the same time (09:00 ET which is either 13:00Z or 14:00Z) starting with our Jan (or maybe Feb) meeting, and we'll switch our focus then. (Not that it will really mean much. :-) In any case, we are scheduled to meet this Thu 12-07 at 14:00Z (note: time is different than last meeting), i.e.: * 06:00 PST * 09:00 EST * 14:00 GMT <== different than last meeting * 15:00 CET <== different than last meeting I thought it would be useful to try to attack ticket 293 "error showing author etc". Peter will lead us through his suggested fix of 11-10 (which I'm reasonably sure will, in fact, work). Discussion to include the difference between signatures of xs:string, xs:string*, text(), text()*, node(), and node()*. And for extra credit I'll ask what's wrong with the XPath in common/functions.xsl on line 739. :-) Hope all the Americans had a great Thanksgiving, and that everyone else had a great non-holiday Thu 23 Nov. :-)

Re: [tei-council] stylesheets attack group meeting

Just to say I'll either have to miss or be late to this meeting since I've got a meeting at 14:00. If you are still going when I get back to my office, I'll join in. Peter's suggested fix looks like it might work to me but I've always been slightly wary about xsl:sequence in any case. As to what is wrong with https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/blob/dev/common/functions.xsl#L739, oh, oh, I know! Is it that it is testing something which isn't (and has never been) valid TEI P5?

The Meals and Incidentals rate for Victoria is $123 (from https://aoprals.state.gov/web920/per_diem_action.asp?MenuHide=1&CountryCode…), of which we can (now) claim 75%, so $92.25.

We are asked to submit our reimbursement requests within 30 days of travel. Hugh

Quick question on zone/@points
by Martin Holmes 04 Dec '17

04 Dec '17

Hi all, I'm working on this ticket: <https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/issues/1453> where I've been tasked with implementing the new @path attribute for att.coordinated. I have a couple of questions which I've put on the ticket, which really need Council decisions. Could you take a look and add any comments you have? I'll hold off on implementing anything based on the decisions for a week. I'm working in a branch: <https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/tree/mdh_path_1453> Cheers, Martin
