Addition/change of TEI@Paderborn addresses
by Peter Stadler 26 Mar '18

26 Mar '18

Dear Ian, may I ask you (on behalf of the TEI Council) to change the current DNS record for jenkins-paderborn.tei-c.org to point at 193.175.67.218? Additionally, I’ve set up an OxGarage instance there so it’d be great if you could add oxgarage-paderborn.tei-c.org as a subdomain and point it at the same IP?! Many thanks in advance Peter -- Peter Stadler Musikwissenschaftliches Seminar Detmold/Paderborn Hornsche Str. 39 D-32756 Detmold Tel. +49 5231 975-676 Fax: +49 5231 975-668 pstadler at mail.uni-paderborn.de http://muwi-detmold-paderborn.de

P5/ReleaseNotes/ChangeLog
by Peter Stadler 24 Mar '18

24 Mar '18

Hi Council, Martina discovered during last release that the write_changelog script didn’t clean up properly after running. I promised to fix this (which I just did in https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/commit/e9206ef7dcb689334be51d55734f3f5315ff78ae) but came across a bigger issue. I.e., the script didn’t write proper changelog information sind release 3.0.0 because of an additional blank line which fools the `head -1`. Anyway, I wonder whether anyone ever looks into P5/ReleaseNotes/ChangeLog which is a mere copy of the history you can view from GitHub (or any other git client). So, I think that might have served some purpose back in the old (subversion) days but couldn’t we simply remove that file (along with the script and the build step) now? Best Peter

oxgarage.euryanthe.de

Dear all, I’ve set up a new OxGarage instance at oxgarage.euryanthe.de and would like to get some feedback from you heavy users. It’s actually two OxGarage docker containers (created from https://hub.docker.com/r/teic/oxgarage/) running behind a load balancer on a Rancher platform (http://rancher.com), served via HTTPS. The URL is not supposed to be stable forever, at present it’s for testing only – when everything works out fine I hope we can turn it into something like oxgarage-paderborn.tei-c.org … Best Peter

teibare slightly broken
by Lou Burnard 08 Mar '18

08 Mar '18

I've just been alerted (thanks Peter) to a problem in the teibare.odd which appears in the current TEI/exemplars directory (and is part of the oxygen TEI framework, updated at each release). According to the text of the ODD "Finally three of the TEI attribute classes are simplified. The attributes xml:space, rend, and xml:base are removed from the att.global class, so that this now makes available to all elements only the following attributes: <att>xml:id</att>, <att>n</att>, and <att>xml:lang</att>. " But of course this is no longer true, because @rend is now supplied by att.global.rendition rather than by att.global (along with a lot of other weird attributes which weren't there before). One solution might be to tie this ODD explicitly to a much earlier release of the Guidelines by means of a @source parameter. That would test whether all the tools in the processing chain Do The Right Thing in such a case. Another might be to bring the ODD up to date, e.g. by deleting the att.global.rendition class. That would probably be less upsetting for existing tools. Or we could just leave well alone, and be prepared to shrug when people complain that TEI Bare is really not as bare as it claims to be...
