Work on OxGarage
by Peter Stadler 26 Jul '21

26 Jul '21

Dear all, during some of our last meetings I mentioned that we (at Paderborn University) are in the lucky position to have a skilled developer to work on the OxGarage. Our main focus is to add music (notation) specific conversion capabilities (for a „MEIGarage") but to keep a common code base with the TEI version and to update and enhance it in passing. Last week we had a first meeting between Paderborn and the TEI, namely Hugh Cayless and James Cummings, to discuss our plans. These are still quite technical (i.e. refactoring and restructuring the code base) but do need some organisational backing. In particular, we plan to split the OxGarage repo [1] into separate repos for every module (by keeping the appropriate Git version history for every module). For this, I want to add Anne as a collaborator to our TEIC GitHub organisation and she will add a few repos to our GitHub space. NB: At present, this will not affect our current OxGarage repo, nor the Docker images, nor the OxGarage deployments. You won’t notice anything but an increase of git repos at our TEIC Github :) We are still at a very early stage but will strive to engage with the (developers) community to share the plans and spread the knowledge more widely. This might involve a report to TEI Council during our next virtual f2f?! Hope this report was not too lengthy nor too short? If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to approach Anne (or me) directly. If I do not hear a loud „nay“ until next week, I will take this as approval and will perform the mentioned actions in our GitHub space :) Cheers Peter [1] https://github.com/TEIC/oxgarage

upcoming Stylesheets meeting
by Bauman, Syd 25 Jul '21

25 Jul '21

Four of us have explicitly expressed preference (on Slack) to move the Stylesheets meeting of Thu 22 Jul (which is in the middle of ACH) to Thu 29 Jul rather than this coming Thu 15 Jul (or leaving it 22 Jul, which is somewhat of a non-starter). Unless 3 or more object quickly and loudly I am going to make it so.

Next release + working groups
by Scholger, Martina (martina.scholger＠uni-graz.at) 08 Jul '21

08 Jul '21

Dear all, The next release will take place in about one month+ (refridge 11 Aug; freeze 15 Aug; release 18 Aug). There are a lot of issues labeled with milestone 4.3.0 (https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%22Gu…) I want to ask you to focus on those issues and tackle as many as we can before refrigeration. If you think you cannot tackle the issue before the next release, please remove the milestone 4.3.0 or change the milestone label to 4.4.0. In our meeting today we discussed to organize small working groups in July/begin of August. This is how it works: if you want to work on an issue (ticket or otherwise) in pairs or a small group, please ask for a potential "buddy" on the mailing list or on Slack to join you. Best, Martina

Menus. Point release?
by Hugh Cayless 22 Jun '21

22 Jun '21

Hi All, You may or may not have noticed that the menus on the Guidelines pages no longer 100% match the menus on the rest of the website. That's because we've sorted out how to edit the website menus, but the Guidelines menus are static, generated from the website at build time. I've just committed a new version that grabs the menu structure live from the website API and incidentally also dispenses with the old UDM Javascript menu code—in our brave new world, you can do these things exclusively in CSS, so why not? My question is whether this warrants a patch release to get things lined up again. Or really whether this even rises to the level of a patch. Maybe it should stay 4.2.2, just with a different build tag. Or we could just wait until the next release :-). Hugh

upcoming Stylesheets meeting
by Bauman, Syd 21 Jun '21

21 Jun '21

We are scheduled to hold a Stylesheets meeting this coming Thu 24 Jun at 17:30Z for 1½ hours. That is * 10:30–12:00 PDT * 13:30–15:00 EDT * 18:30–20:00 BST * 19:30–21:00 CEST Martina — will you be sending out a Zoom (or whatever) link or shall I? Proposed agenda: 1. Ticket 444<https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/issues/444>, which we have tried before, but for which Martin & I have a new proposed solution. 2. Ticket 399<https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/issues/399>, which we have tackled in the past only to find there were sequalae to the obvious solution. One possible approach: if we have 6 or more people, we could split into 2 groups and tackle them simultaneously. I like that idea for reasons of efficiency; I don’t like it in that I would feel left out of ½ of the fun.

Meeting times: Council and Stylesheets call
by Scholger, Martina (martina.scholger＠uni-graz.at) 19 Jun '21

19 Jun '21

Dear all, at our last Council meeting we agreed that we want to start with our monthly Council and Stylesheet call 30 minutes earlier. I hope this is also fine for the Council members who were not present at this meeting, and for Martin and Nicholas who regularly attend the Stylesheets meeting. This means that we start at: 10:30am PDT, 1:30pm EDT, 6:30 BST, 7:30pm CEST. Our next Stylesheets call is on Thursday, June 24. Best, Martina
