TEI release directory structure
by Peter Stadler 01 Mar '21

01 Mar '21

Hi all, apologies for sending to both groups, but this issue is kind of between Council and infrastructure group, so I thought I’d be better to include both. The issue I see is about the „release“ directory structure, i.e. the stuff at https://tei-c.org/release/ Currently, on the Huma-Num server, „release“ is just a symlink pointing at "Vault/P5/current“ – this caused frequent errors with the Stylesheets release missing due to missing CSS files for building ePubs. It was hacked around by copying Stylesheets to P5 or symlinking Stylesheets into P5. Since the structure under „release“ seems to mimic the "/usr/share/doc“ and „/usr/share/xml“ structure known from Debian systems – and this is the place where the TEI Debian packages are installed by default – I think the *original* setup might have looked like an apache Webserver simply serving its local „/usr/share“ directory under „release“ to the outside. At the latest with the ADHO server crash, this setup got lost and we have a semi-functioning release directory now. IMHO, with our current infrastructure, the proper setup would be to (hard) create the directory „release/doc“ and „release/xml/tei“ and create symlinks within these directories to the respective directories in the Vault: release/doc * tei-p5-doc —> ../../Vault/P5/current/doc/tei-p5-doc * tei-p5-exemplars —> ../../Vault/P5/current/doc/tei-p5-exemplars * tei-xsl —> ../../Vault/Stylesheets/current/doc/tei-xsl release/xml/tei: * Exemplars —> ../../../Vault/P5/current/xml/tei/Exemplars * Test —> ../../../Vault/P5/current/xml/tei/Test * custom —> ../../../Vault/P5/current/xml/tei/custom * odd —> ../../../Vault/P5/current/xml/tei/odd * schema —> ../../../Vault/P5/current/xml/tei/schema * stylesheet —> ../../../Vault/Stylesheets/current/xml/tei/stylesheet * xquery —> ../../../Vault/P5/current/xml/tei/xquery release/oxygen —> Vault/P5/current/oxygen Does that make sense? Anything I’m missing? And of course, I’m curious about some more history that Lou(?) or James(?) might be able to share? Best Peter

Stylesheets meeting is scheduled for this Thu 04 Mar 19:00Z
by Bauman, Syd 01 Mar '21

01 Mar '21

If I understand correctly, we are scheduled to hold a Stylesheets meeting this coming Thursday, 04 March at 19:00Z to 20:30Z. That is * 11:00 PST * 14:00 EST * 19:00 GMT * 20:00 CET for 1½ hours. I am expecting we will spend a little time reviewing the fix for the 4.2.1 release, and intend to post here an actual agenda with a ticket or two to work on by at least 24 hours before the meeting. I am hoping Martina will also post the details of how to get to the meeting here at least a few hours before the meeting. Looking forward!

Slight borkitude in moduleRef content model display
by Martin Holmes 25 Feb '21

25 Feb '21

Hi all, Just clicking around in the various types of Guidelines outputs, and I noticed this: <https://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ref-moduleRef.html> Take a look at the content model. It's the same in the ebook; it's slightly different but I think also borked in the PDF (p. 1402). I don't think it's urgent, because it was the same in 4.1.0. I'll raise a ticket and start investigating. Cheers, Martin -- ------------------------------------------ Martin Holmes UVic Humanities Computing and Media Centre

Dear Council, The Release team is happy to report that with the exception of the Oxygen Plugin, the build and release of P5 4.2.0 and Stylesheets 7.51.0 has been done. The release notes need some moderately extensive updating, and I will be making some suggested changes and a pull request later today / tomorrow. Very best wishes, Nicholas, Meaghan, and Peter.

GPG Key
by Nicholas Cole 23 Feb '21

23 Feb '21

Dear Council, Just to note that the current expiration date for the TEI GPG key is the second of next month. This can be extended, of course, without problem, but I’m not sure whose task that is. Best wishes, Nicholas

Release Number?
by Nicholas Cole 20 Feb '21

20 Feb '21

Dear Council, There is a lot in this release. Have we all agreed what the version number is? ;-) If there are any last pleas not to ‘freeze’ yet, make them now. As far as I can see, the Jenkins servers are reporting builds correctly. I’m going to ‘freeze’ at 15:00pm UK time, for Release 4.2.0, unless we think this is a ‘major’ version. (I actually think there’s quite a lot in this release, actually). Best wishes, N.

broken persPronouns
by Bauman, Syd 18 Feb '21

18 Feb '21

~10 hours ago PR 2014 was merged into dev. This broke the build because we (Meaghan and I) had examples that used <persPronouns> in running-prose-like places (inside <closer> and <docAuthor>, to be precise); but, because <persPronouns> was (as per the original FR) only a member of model.personPart, it was only allowed inside <person>, <personGrp>, and <persona>. We put our heads together on a brief telephone consultation, and concluded that we believe that the new <persPronouns> element is going to be desired for the encoding of signature blocks in email or blog posts as much or more than in personographies. Therefore we think the solution is to permit <persPronouns> in those sorts of places, not to remove the examples. Thus I have made <persPronouns> a member of model.persNamePart (in addition to model.personPart). This allows <persPronouns> in <closer> and <docAuthor>, and thus should fix the build. It also allows <persPronouns> in quite a few desirable places like inside an <s>, a <p>, or an <item>. It also allows it inside lots of somewhat screwy places like <tagUsage> and <unti>. However, <roleName> (for example) is allowed in precisely the same set of places, so even if screwy, at least it is consistently screwy. If anyone wants to object, please do so quickly (by Fri latest, preferably earlier). The commit that would need to be reverted is 1f874af07. Sorry everyone. The reason this got past me, BTW, is because oNVDL does not run on my system. (Martin is saying “I told you so” right now. :-)
