Dear all, This is the agenda for our VF2F meeting: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ditQHz4VXEitKZ7IeWO41tgzKZq_LwF0zclXHJF… I think that we first should work on pull requests (with milestone 4.2.0) and Guidelines issues with the milestone "Guidelines 4.2.0" which are still labeled with "Needs Discussion+Go" or do not have a status yet. For the North American Group - please start with whatever you like and fix issues from either or both of the tables. On Saturday the European group will … [View More]

Question on progress with the ruby work
by Martin Holmes 26 Jan '21

26 Jan '21

Hi all, I'm writing to Council because I need to get some clarity on what Council is aiming at with regard to the ruby markup proposal and the upcoming release. My initial understanding, and the work Syd and I have been doing, was based on the idea that we would really like to get a basic implementation of the new elements into the schema, along with a simple section for the prose chapter, in time for this release; that would allow the Japanese users in particular, who initiated the … [View More]work, to get started with the markup and begin to work out some of the edge cases. However, the work on the ticket and the repo has become increasingly complexified; Duncan has submitted a set of cases that would stretch the initial implementation considerably and require a much-expanded prose section with many more examples, and this could not be ready for the upcoming release. My personal view is that these cases could be submitted as feature requests for further exemplification and expansion of the chapter prose, which we will need to do anyway, after the initial release, but Duncan is quite determined that he doesn't want to do that. There are also various discussions about multiple methods for doing stand-off ruby markup, some of which look quite flaky to me, and which I wouldn't really want to recommend in the Guidelines; but I'm not a content expert and don't have much authority to wield. As always, there is a lot of tension between the need for the Guidelines to provide straightforward, generic recommendations and the desire for people to see their own preferred approaches sanctioned and exemplified. I need to have something ready for the Council meeting on Saturday, so I'd like to get Council's view on what we're aiming to do right now. I think our options are: 1. Add only the new elements to the schema, with full Spec files and basic examples in them, but without any prose section in the Guidelines. 2. Add to #1 a relative short and straightforward introduction in the prose, with some basic worked examples, but no complicated edge cases, at the same time soliciting feature requests for further work. 3. Give up on getting anything into this release, and instead adopt a working-group approach to build a complete solution before we put anything into a release. My personal preference is for #2, but I don't think it's a decision I can make without Council's backing. Cheers, Martin -- ------------------------------------- Humanities Computing and Media Centre University of Victoria mholmes(a)uvic.ca [View Less]

GitHub PRs
by Bauman, Syd 21 Jan '21

21 Jan '21

Inspired by Nick’s tei_current_assignments.py<https://github.com/npcole/teiutils>, a program that leverages the gitHub API to summarize gitHub issue assignments, I have just spent the entire day trying to write an XSLT program to summarize pull requests. At this point, I have to (at least temporarily) give up. I simply cannot figure out how to get the list of reviewers (those who have been asked to be reviewers, those who have accepted the request to be a reviewer, and those who have … [View More]

shift of validation need deprecation?
by Bauman, Syd 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

I am hoping to close several tickets, including #2062<https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/issues/2062> very soon. This one “needs discussion”, IMHO, only on the issue of whether or not deprecation is required. Could folks weigh in on the ticket, please? Issue: the @key attribute of <specDesc> is optional in the schema, but required by the Stylesheets. The request is to require it in the schema, too. Decision (unilateral, by me): yes, we should make @key of <specDesc> required by the … [View More]

tei_customization the shunned step child
by Bauman, Syd 18 Jan '21

Is there a reason that tei_customization.rn[cg] are not showing up in https://jenkins.tei-c.org/job/TEIP5-dev/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/P5/rel… Am I looking in the wrong place? BTW, where in the lastSuccessfulBuild hierarchy does one look for the .isosch files?
