Dear all,
it turned out that the Open Council Session in Tokyo is a plenary session on Monday morning, from 9:30-12:00. I thought that there will be workshops on Monday morning as well, but there aren't.
What does that mean for us? Maybe we want to do a short presentation on how Council works first - like Elisa and Raff did it in Vienna? After that, I'd stick with our plan to discuss one or two issues, e.g. measurement (https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/issues/1707) and ask Naoki Kokaze for a short presentation of the issue.
I think it would be good to announce the session on the TEI-L, so that people know what to expect. But in this case we don't need to ask for registration, right?
I'll put this on the agenda for next week, but I'd be happy for first thoughts.
Best wishes,
Martina
Hey Council,
Doing some information archaeology for other reasons I stumbled across this diagram made by Sebastian about how TEI ODDs are processed into schemas and documentation. Don't know why but thought it might be useful for people who occasionally wonder how Sebastian was thinking of the stylesheets processing pipeline. Just thought I'd pass it along in any case.

Dear all,
Sorry it took me a while, but I've now looked at the doodle poll again and
the best date to meet and talk about Roma is Friday August 10th at 15:00
EDT.
I look forward to talking to you then and thanks in advance for you help!

Hi all,
you can find a spreadsheet with travel information for Tokyo in our shared minutes folder (and linked in last week's minutes).

Hi,
Seems reasonable (sorry again that I couldn't make the meeting). Just in case there was some confusion though, the oXygen plugin does not 'reach into the Vault for source to TEI'. It is bundled with it as part of the framework. It is only if someone chooses to update the framework by using the add-on system that they'll get prompted for updates. Otherwise they are stuck with whatever is in oxygen/frameworks/tei/ with p5subset.xml being in ${framework}/xml/tei/odd/ and it really mostly using the relaxng at ${framework}/xml/tei/custom/schema/relaxng/tei_all.rng
But I agree that if an editor has the capability to check for updates online and use those then reaching into the vault to get them would be a good thing. It would, of course, be preferred for it to have a local copy of the schema to enable offline editing.
Does this really need documentation on how the Vault is structured except to say that the most current release of the RNG schema is at: http://www.tei-c.org/Vault/P5/current/xml/tei/custom/schema/relaxng/tei_all… (with .rnc schemas next to it if they prefer)? Editor frameworks aren't grabbing things from p5subset.xml or the rest of the Guidelines are they?
(I'm *not* saying that better documentation on the Vault isn't a good idea...it is, just that it is barely needed for an editor framework.)
Many thanks,
James

Subject: [Tei-council] Open TEI editor development proposal
Dear Board,
Marjorie Burghart recently contacted the Council with a suggestion. She wants to apply to a DARIAH EU grant for sustainability to push forward the development of a free and open TEI/XML editor, in this case a plugin for jEdit. See https://www.dariah.eu/2018/06/29/dariah-theme-funding-call-2018-2019/. Submission deadline is September 9.
We have discussed it in our last Council call and support the idea since there is obviously high demand for a free editor with native TEI support.
We think that the Council’s part in this could be to provide data and documentation in a form, where it would be possible to develop a plugin for _any_ XML editor.
Like oXygen plug-in, the newly developed editor should reach into the Vault for source to TEI. We should document how the Vault is structured so that developers can use it appropriately. We then would consider supporting it in the ongoing release process if it conforms to agreed-upon conventions.
We would hope that the Board also supports this effort and would suggest to draft a joint letter of support by the Council and Board for Marjorie to lend more weight to her proposal.
Best wishes,
Martina
