Bah,
For some reason in my head this was an evening call and so I'm currently scheduled to be driving halfway across the country at this point. I may be able to join the text-chat or something but no promises. Entirely my fault, I apologise.
I noticed that someone had suggested Issue 327 https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/issues/327 for discussion. I've updated that ticket with a list of the work I've done on it, and what I think is still to do. It seems basically feature complete to me but I'm sure people will have tweaks they want to make. I'd also be interested in more examples, so English descriptions of non-western but really famous objects. e.g. I added Tutankhamen's Mask as one of the examples (alongside the Alfred Jewel and Excalibur).
Otherwise, if people want to skip discussing this in the call and do so on the ticket, I'm fine with that.
Many thanks,
James

Dear Martina, dear all,
I'm really sad. My contribution to the TEI was null this time.
When I applied to the Council in 2016, I made a
big miscalculation, thinking that I would have a
clean agenda and time to dedicate to the Council,
but unexpected things happened that drew my attention away from the TEI.
At the beginning, by the time of the Prague
meeting, I was enthused with participating in the
Council. It is important to say that the way the
Council works now, with so many tickets, GitHub,
Jenkins, etc., is very different to how it was
back in 2006/2007 when we were dealing with
migration from P3/P4 to P5. Tutorship is very
important in this respect, to climb up the
learning curve much quicker. But I cannot justify
my low participation based on this.
You all know by now that family health issues
made me cancel many agenda events, starting with
the Victoria meeting, and then the Cologne
meeting. Attending meetings is vital to at least
keep track of the Council whereabouts.
By the time of the TEI conference in Japan I was completely out of everything.
Now I'm in Uruguay, still sorting out family issues.
Maybe in a few months I will return to "normal"... who knows?
You are a very nice group, and I enjoyed the time we shared in Prague.
I want to thank you all for your understanding
and cooperation, and particularly to Elli and
Elisa who were so kind to keep me connected to
the Cologne meeting. My apologies for not contributing as much as expected.
Wish you all the best,
Alex.-

Dear all,
as the end of the year draws near, it is time to say goodbye to our leaving Council member Alex Bia.
Thank you for your contribution to the TEI Community and best of luck with your future undertakings!
Best wishes,
Martina
Hello, yes. I thought it was me, though as they say "It takes a village" and if she wishes ask others for help, that is fine as well.
Why? What's up?
Many thanks,
James

Hi Hugh,
I think it is probably better just to make it common knowledge by reminding us lots that in writing good commit messages (not the crappy ones I tend to use) that avoiding the word 'error' and the word 'warning' are probably good ideas.
Many thanks,
James

FYI I'm pretty sure it is possible to tell Jenkins to ignore specific messages, so there's a workaround available if you have a case where you really WANT to say "error" :-).

Hi Syd,
I had that problem the other week with some otherwise benign changes where I mentioned "Error in listObject Example" (26 October) https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/commits you'll see immediately after I committed "inconsequential commit to trick Jenkins".
This is because the way Jenkins flags whether there is an error or not is parsing the console output for the word 'error'. Imagine how fun this would be if one of our tests returned "No errors here!". Sigh. So having it do it again won't do anything but find the same error it thinks exists because your commit message is present.
I'd suggest, if you haven't already, just making a trivial change, even just spacing, and re-committing/pushing without mentioning the word 'error'. ;-)
Best wishes,
James

Subject: [Tei-council] Jenkins dislikes my commit message?
Could the Jenkins maintainers force the Stylesheets-dev job to
re-build?
My check-in from this morning's meeting built as well as can be
expected on my local system. It fails in Jenkins, flagging my commit
message itself (which contains the word "error"). I'm hoping that if
Mr. Jenkins just does the work again, it will work. If not, I'll try
committing some tiny tweak with a different commit message.
