Triangle SCI and possible Mellon grant
by Hugh Cayless 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

Hi all, I was supposed to send this a couple of weeks ago. My apologies. In October, Martina and I, along with several other folks, were at the Scholarly Communications Institute here in NC. Our group was focused on doing something about better internationalizing the TEI, including improving the translation process, introductory materials, etc. At the end, we were approached by Patricia Hswe, who’s a program officer at Mellon about possibly putting together a proposal to do some of this work. The following document is a kind of summary of our conclusions plus some ideas for how extra funding might help: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TPuMHN4ZxklX5JlLo7HEFmEgTiUvuRD0cxDFE65… Patricia would like us to submit a prospectus, which would lead to a grant proposal if it is accepted. Your thoughts are, of course, welcome. So, interesting times! Hugh Sent from my phone.

delete git branch?
by Syd Bauman 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

I re-named the "nest_TEI_deprecate_teiCorpus" branch to "sydb_standOff". That really means, of course, that I copied it. If we delete the old one, is the history still kept in the new one? (Looking at [1] it looks like the history would be kept, and we can just delete the old one.) Notes ----- [1] https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/commits/sydb_standOff/P5/Source/Specs/TEI.xml

oxygen-tei framework fix
by Martin Holmes 05 Dec '19

05 Dec '19

Hi all, Those of you on the Stylesheets call on Tuesday will remember that we discovered in the course of it that Syd's TEI for TEI Customizations template/ODD was available in the TEI P5 framework in Oxygen but not in the TEI ODD framework. I raised a ticket for that at the time, and I just figured it out and fixed it: <https://github.com/TEIC/oxygen-tei/issues/39> I put an explanation of the problem on the ticket, because we're sure to stumble over this again. If you're using the bleeding-edge version of the plugin, you should now be able to update and see Syd's thing in the TEI ODD framework options. Cheers, Martin -- ------------------------------------------ Martin Holmes UVic Humanities Computing and Media Centre

Re: [Tei-council] release dates, some findings
by James Cummings 05 Dec '19

05 Dec '19

No objections to that. For the record some of these may have been instances where we had done a full release, realised that there was some corrigible error (in the build/release process), and then manually or otherwise did a re-release without changing the actual date of release. That is, we did the release, announced it, noticed an important error (like the non-English pages having not generated properly) and then silently fixed it without mentioning it publicly. ;-) There were also instances where stumbling blocks in the release meant that it went over midnight in the timezone where the build was happening. Not saying we shouldn't update the webpages to match the XML reality, just explaining. (Now off strike, but working to contract.)

A few dates differed from what is mentioned in the respective release notes, so I fixed it to match the release notes. Lastly, one release note has the wrong date [2] which I already fixed in the xml [3]. I propose to adjust the date in the html version in the vault, as well, which I’ll do as soon as I get access to the vault.

vault.tei-c.org
by Peter Stadler 04 Dec '19

04 Dec '19

Dear all (Council and infrastructure group), here’s yet another update on the move to humanum: In our strive to separate out concerns and services we added another subdomain vault.tei-c.org where you can find – drumroll!" – the Vault. The data stems from a mounted volume which also feeds the ’traditional’ host at https://tei-c.org/Vault/. So, at present this is purely an additional service for us to test and sort things out. The vault.tei-c.org is run by an nginx docker container and the service description can be found in the infrastructure repo [1]. I already added CORS and some mime types for XML files – if anything is missing, drop me a line! Looking at the vault I found that the last three releases of the Stylesheets were missing at [2]. I just added them (as you can see from the timestamp) and updated the symlinks to „current“ and „current-old“. Second, I fixed the release date for 3.2.0 in the respective readme files (as I promised in my last mail). Looking at the P5 releases in the vault [3] I see „current-broken“, "current.03.04.2019“, and „X.X.X“. Is this in use by anyone? I suspect these are just leftovers from the migration which I’d like to delete. And there’s is a hidden „.svn“ folder which looks like it could be deleted as well. If no-one objects, I’ll do so. Best Peter [1] https://github.com/TEIC/infrastructure/tree/master/humanum [2] https://tei-c.org/Vault/Stylesheets/ or https://vault.tei-c.org/Stylesheets/ [3] https://vault.tei-c.org/P5/

I might be late to this. (I'm not counting TEI things as 'work' for the purposes of the UCU strike in HE here in the UK -- protesting the ongoing theft if our pensions, precarious contacts, absolutely gender pay gap. However I'll have to commute back home from the picket line rather than go to my office.)
