Tokyo Per Diem
by Raffaele Viglianti 25 Oct '18

25 Oct '18

Hi folks, PSA about the per diem in Tokyo: US Dept. of State rate for Meal and Incidental Expense rate in Tokyo is $227 The breakdown (source: https://www.gsa.gov/travel/plan-book/per-diem-rates/fy2018-mie-breakdown#1h ): Breakfast: 34 Lunch: 57 Dinner: 91 Incidentals: 45 (but remember we're supposed to keep this under 20 or submit receipts) Syd (and others), which meals did you pay for the group? We had fewer lunches / dinners together this year IIRC. I covered the okonomiyaki dinner on 2018/09/07 with council members: RV (+1), SS, JC, EBB. Hope everyone had smooth travel back home! Raff

Stylesheets v7.46.0 released
by Raffaele Viglianti 02 Oct '18

02 Oct '18

Dear council, Syd and I, with the help of Martin Holmes and Peter Stadler, have just completed a new release of the stylesheets v7.46.0. In the process, we've also made a couple of updates to tcw22 and the utility script tei-install.sh. I don't know if stylesheets releases need to be announced on TEI-L, especially since we don't assemble a document listing changes besides a generated changelog. The freeze on the dev branch is now over, code away. Raff

Referring to the TEI Stylesheets on the web
by Peter Stadler 28 Sep '18

28 Sep '18

Hi Council, hi Martin, the subject is a little misleading, so let me explain the issue (sorry, lengthy again): Say, you want to build the TEI Guidelines but don’t have the TEI Stylesheets installed/downloaded on your machine. In the Makefile (under TEI/P5) you’ll find the following lines ``` XSL=/usr/share/xml/tei/stylesheet # If you have not installed the Debian packages, uncomment one # of the next two lines: #XSL=../Stylesheets/release/tei-xsl/p5 #XSL=http://www.tei-c.org/stylesheet/release/xml/tei ``` which suggests that you can point to an online resource for the Stylesheets (see the last line of the code snippet). Yet, that does not work and probably never(!) worked, because in the ant built file (TEI/P5/antbuilder.xml) the stylesheets are called like ``` <xslt processor="trax" force="yes" style="${XSL}/odds/odd2json.xsl" in="p5subset.xml" out="p5subset.js“> ``` i.e. the respective stylesheet is pointed to from the @style attribute. But this @style attribute can not (and probably never could) refer to an URI, see https://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/style.html <https://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/style.html> – only filenames. URIs can be consumed by the ANT XSLT task, but then we’d need to replace the @style attribute with a nested style element. When using a nested style element (with an appropriate url element), we’re getting in trouble with our current practice which is to only use relative paths (almost) everywhere but without providing a proper scheme. This seems like a whole can of worms and I already tried several things but nothing really worked without rewriting too much code. Any comments and/or ideas are welcome Peter

when to meet? Doodle poll invite
by Syd Bauman 28 Sep '18

28 Sep '18

Per Martina, here is our Doodle poll for scheduling future TEI Council monthly teleconference calls. This poll is only about which day of week and what time, not about 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, last, or whatever week of month. All times are UTC, and thus shift an hour for DST. 12:00Z, earliest time ------- -------- ---- 07:00 EST, 08:00 EDT 12:00 GMT, 13:00 BST 13:00 CET, 14:00 CEST 21:00Z, latest time ------- ------ ---- 16:00 EST, 17:00 EDT 21:00 GMT, 22:00 BST 22:00 CET, 23:00 CEST I can't speak for others, but here in USA [1] we will "fall back" from DST to standard time on Sun 04 Nov; except that Florida is trying to exempt itself from ever using standard time -- they want to use DST all year. So Sarah, you should keep abreast of that. A good list of time changes is available at https://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/2018.html Notes ----- [1] Except for AZ and HI, which do not observe DST at all. But we don't have any Council members in either of those states. :-)

Stylesheets release freeze -- better late than never
by Syd Bauman 27 Sep '18

27 Sep '18

We have just created the release branch for Stylesheets (which we should have done last week). So feel free to push to 'dev' branch, but nothing should go to 'release-7.46.0' branch unless approved by me or Raff. Could Martin & Peter create appropriate jobs in Jenkins, please? Thanks.

Hi Syd, I actually sent out the agenda and hangouts link on Tuesday. Hope everyone got it. Just in case: Our conference call is today, starting at 12:00Z-13:30Z (08:00-9:30 EDT, 13:00-14:30 BST, 14:00-15:30 CEST) This is the agenda: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uGtDk4AoOvHXTV6EzdSeyo-D5ItsAz7PBnKtHIg… Hangouts: https://hangouts.google.com/hangouts/_/brown.edu/teicouncil Best wishes, Martina -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Tei-council <tei-council-bounces(a)lists.tei-c.org> Im Auftrag von Syd Bauman Gesendet: Donnerstag, 27. September 2018 00:08 An: TEI Council <tei-council(a)lists.tei-c.org> Betreff: [Tei-council] meeting? RELAX NG namespace in Schematron Welcome aboard, Vanessa! Martina -- are we in fact meeting tomorrow, and if so a) at what time?[1,2] b) can you post the URLs for both the Hangout and the agenda & minutes sooner rather than later? All -- I'm working on the "normal" ODD->Schematron pathway (odds/extract-isosch.xsl, i.e. the process that creates a standalone Schematron schema, not the one that embeds Schematron into RELAX NG) in response to Stylesheets #250. The code in that program always generates an <sch:ns prefix="rng"> element to declare the RELAX NG namespace in the output Schematron. I presume when it was put in it was needed because some Schematron rule or other used "rng:" in its @context or @test attribute. But the string "rng:" does not occur in *any* attribute in all of P5 now. (And the only elements in the RELAX NG namespace are inside <egXML> or in data.XXX, soon to be deprecated.) So I am planning to nuke the automatic generation of <sch:ns prefix="rng"> in this routine. (It will still get generated if there are definitions that specify it on their @ns, or an <sch:ns> element that defines it, or it is a namespace in force for one of the definitions.) If anyone knows of a reason it should stay, please speak up soon (or revert my change). Notes ----- [1] 12:00Z = 08:00 EDT, 13:00 BST, 14:00 CEST 13:00Z = 09:00 EDT, 14:00 BST, 15:00 CEST Sorry, I don't know your time zone, Vanessa. [2] IIRC we agreed to 13:00Z, but then again, I thought we agreed not to have a teleconference the last Thu of Oct, too. _______________________________________________ Tei-council mailing list Tei-council(a)lists.tei-c.org http://lists.lists.tei-c.org/mailman/listinfo/tei-council

Update on Docker and Travis
by Peter Stadler 14 Sep '18

14 Sep '18

Dear all, as I reported during our Council meeting on Saturday(?) I wanted to clean up and reorganize our Docker images a little bit. Here’s a little update on my work so far: a) every DockerHub repo is now turned into an „automated build“. This results in a better GitHub integration since every commit to a GitHub repo will trigger a fresh built of the respective Docker image at DockerHub. Sadly, there is no way of converting an existing repo so I had to nuke the Jenkins and the teidev-docker repos and recreate them. Hence, all stars and pull statistics got lost :( b) because some repos do not get frequent commits, I added a cron job at my server to regularly trigger a rebuild of those images to keep them updated with their upstream images. Now that I’m writing this, I think that would make a nice Jenkins job. Will try and report back! c) I was originally thinking that I’d like to alter the teidev-docker image to inherit from our Jenkins image (so we need to maintain only one Dockerfile with the software dependencies) – but when I was working on this it occurred to me, that we actually could be doing everything with the Jenkins image alone (by overwriting the entrypoint and cmd directives) and don’t need a dedicated image for building the Guidelines etc. locally. If you want to give it a try, install Docker, navigate to your Stylesheets directory and enter the command: `docker run --rm -w /var/odd -it -v `pwd`:/var/odd --entrypoint "make" teic/jenkins:dev test ` This will run the tests on your machine, with your local files, with the software environment from the Jenkins Docker image. That’s cool, ain’t it? d) I was taking first steps with Travis for RomaJS and it’s great fun, because (again) it integrates with GitHub so seamlessly. What we gain is automated testing for every branch and every pull request, nice badges, and even Slack notifications ;) So, I added this Travis integration to the Stylesheets repo as well, using the Docker image and the above Docker command for testing. Another really cool thing IMHO, because (thanks to Docker) the commands run are using the very same software environment as our Jenkins does. If you want to check, have a look at the .travis.yml file in the Stylesheets repo which is driving the integration tests. [1] BTW, everybody who is a member of the GitHub TEIC organisation should be able to login and see/alter all the stuff at https://travis-ci.org/TEIC <https://travis-ci.org/TEIC>. Of course, these new opportunities bring up a few new ideas. Here’s the proposal bit: 1) since we do not need a dedicated Docker image for building locally, I propose to delete the repo at DockerHub. At GitHub, I propose to archive the repo. Instead, I will add a section to the Jenkins Readme on how to build locally with the Docker image. Any other reference on how to build the Guidelines should be updated as well and have at least a pointer to the Jenkins Readme and the Jenkins Dockerfile. That would serve as our main „infrastructure as code“ documentation on how to set up the build environment. 2) I propose to add Travis integration to the TEI repo as well and set it up to (only) run the Tests (i.e. `make clean validate test`). Since the Guidelines depend on the Stylesheets to build, Travis would need to get them from Jenkins lastSuccesfullBuild (as Jenkins is currently doing) 3) Once we have the Travis integration, I propose to turn our dev branches into "protected“ branches. That means, on the pull request pages on GitHub (and only there) the test results will be added. An example for how this looks like can be seen at [2]. The advantage is for the issuer of the pull request to directly see whether it’s working or not. If the tests are failing the pull request is marked as „blocked“, but as an administrator (and probably all Council members have this role?) you are still able to merge. 4) A mid term goal could be to use Travis for running the tests and have Jenkins only build the artefacts. We could even replace Jenkins completely but then we’d need another place to push our build artefacts to. Sorry for the lengthy mail. Best Peter [1] https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/blob/dev/.travis.yml [2] https://github.com/eXist-db/exist/pull/2153

Dear Council, Kiyonori sent us some information for the Council meeting and dinner(s). He would like to invite us and other TEI/JADH/ADHO members to a dinner on Saturday evening. Please check out the details in his email below. The room number for the Council meeting is B1 at Hitotsubashi Hall. Save travels and see you soon in Tokyo! Best wishes, Martina -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Kiyonori NAGASAKI <nagasaki(a)dhii.jp> Gesendet: Montag, 3.

As written in the following URL, https://tei2018.dhii.asia/boardandcouncil The Council meeting will be held in a room on 2nd floor at the conference venue on Friday and Saturday. Please come to there. During the two days, I will stay at the room to support the meeting. There are many restaurants around the venue. You can find them on various map tools. I strongly recommend to avoid general lunch time because the restaurants will be usually filled with many office workers. I put some lunch places and a convenience store on the map for TEI2018 https://tei2018.dhii.asia/accomodations and will add some more restaurants. We would like to invite the members of the Council with other TEI and JADH/ADHO members to a dinner on Saturday from 18:00. I will take you to the restaurant. Please notify that light meals will be provided on lunch break time on Monday after the Council open meeting due to the short lunch time. After that, please join in the official banquet on Monday and the Board-Council dinner and Karaoke on Thursday. Moreover, we're planning to hold casual dinner arranged in groups on Tuesday, please wait for a while. Please let me know if you have other things you want to know. Best wishes, Kiyonori
