Dec 20 ticket assignments
by Bauman, Syd 03 Jan '21

03 Jan '21

Finally got to it, sorry. Let me know if you are interested in my litany of excuses … 🙂 I left TEI #2073 and Stylesheets #480 unassigned, as they are blocked by another ticket. (They are the 2nd and 3rd parts of the 3 step sequence for the examples: change the content model (#2072), change the processing (#480), actually change the use of the element (#2073).) Number of tickets of current and recent Council members, loosely defined (TEI then Stylesheets): Syd Bauman = sydb 42 14 Elisa Beshero-Bondar = ebeshero 23 06 Vanessa Bigot_Juloux = vbigot-juloux 02 00 Meaghan Brown = MegJBrown 10 01 Loub Burnard = lb42 01 00 Hugh Cayless = hcayless 21 12 Nicholas Cole = npcole 13 07 James Cummings = jamescummings 05 03 Martin Holmes = martindholmes 08 13 Janelle Jenstad = JanelleJenstad 02 00 Jessica_H. Lu = lujessica 10 03 Elli Mylonas = emylonas 02 01 Helena Bermúdez_Sabel = HelanaSabel 02 00 Martina Scholger = martinascholger 18 03 Peter Stadler = peterstadler 17 09 Sarah Stanley = scstanley7 00 00 Magdalena Turska = tuurma 18 02 Raffaele Viglianti = raffazizzi 18 03 BTW, if you want to quickly see how many tickets are assigned to each GitHub user that has tickets assigned, try out Nick’s clever new tool. See https://github.com/npcole/teiutils. If you have Python 3.8 installed you can just issue python3.8 teiutils/bin/tei_current_assignments.py, and presto! P.S. HelenaSabel is now a member of TEIC on GitHub. I only auto-added her to the TEI Council group. Can she add herself to other teams as she wants, or does an owner or team member have to do that for her?

Martina for Chair!
by Bauman, Syd 03 Jan '21

03 Jan '21

Re: https://tei-c.org/activities/council/ So, first a question: who are you? I realize I am not sure who the webmaster is recently. Anyway, on the Council page the “Term January 2019 through December 2020” section should now be deleted, and the “Chair 2020” after Martina’s name should be changed to “Chair 2021” (or perhaps just “Chair”?). Thank you! P.S. Personally, I am still in favor of having a list of people who have served on the Council in the past, either on this page or pointed to by this page. But I have been saying that for years …

virtual short F2F meeting
by Scholger, Martina (martina.scholger＠uni-graz.at) 22 Dec '20

22 Dec '20

Dear all, We have a date for the virtual short F2F meeting. It is January 29 to 30. This is how it works: The North Americans start on Friday afternoon at 12am PST / 3pm EST The Europeans continue on Saturday morning at 10am CET The full Council meets on Saturday morning for US/CA, afternoon for Europeans. The original plan would mean 6am PST / 9am EST / 3pm CET. I'd suggest moving this back an hour or two since that seems very early for Janelle. Let's discuss this during our next call on January 14. Unfortunately Meaghan will not be able to join us on those dates, but there was no doodle option which suited everyone. Best, Martina

ticket assignments and mentors
by Bauman, Syd 15 Dec '20

15 Dec '20

[Janelle and Helena — every month 1 person from Council is the “ticket triage” person. This person pays attention to new or otherwise unassigned tickets (actually called “issues”) on GitHub, and assigns them to one or more Council members; might also assign labels and milestone to each. This month I am the ticket triager.] IIRC at our last meeting we did not decide on mentors for our new members, instead deferring that decision to January. Does that mean I should not assign tickets to Janelle and Helena, either? My instinct is that I should go ahead and assign tickets to our new members now (so as to avoid forgetting or having unassigned tickets; besides, one of them requires a native Spanish speaker :-), with the understanding that until they have each gone through some orientation with their mentor next month, there is no expectation of actually tackling the tickets yet. As soon as they are ready, the tickets would be waiting for them, though. Any objections?

virtual short F2F meeting January/February
by Scholger, Martina (martina.scholger＠uni-graz.at) 04 Dec '20

04 Dec '20

Dear Council, During the three days virtual F2F meeting in October we agreed on a VSF2F (virtual short face-to-face meeting) in late January or early February: * US/CA meet Friday afternoon / evening (~3 hours) * Europeans meet Saturday morning (~3 hours) * Council convenes as a whole on Saturday (morning for US/CA, afternoon for Europeans) (~4 hours) Please fill in the doodle: https://doodle.com/poll/8958wr5fqecfqxne?utm_source=poll&utm_medium=link For our new members: In addition to the monthly meetings we have in person meetings twice a year for three days (one in spring and one before or after the TEI Conference). This year we had two very successful meetings, but it is not possible to meet online for full three days, also because of the time difference. Since we do not expect in person meetings in 2021 (at least not in the first half of the year) we agreed to hold an additional meeting in January/February. Best, Martina

Stylesheets meeting, Tue 01 Dec

01 Dec '20

We are scheduled to hold a Stylesheets meeting this coming Tue 01 Dec 20, 14:00Z, which is: * 06:00 PST (Victoria) * 09:00 EST (New York) * 14:00 GMT (London) * 15:00 CET (Berlin) I do not know on which platform we will meet, or who will be hosting. (I suppose as chair of this group I am supposed to figure that out, but so far y’all have pretty cleverly kept me out of the communication technology end of things.) Is Google Hangouts still viable? Anyway, topics include (but are not limited to): * ticket #471<https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/issues/471>: Add permalink for examples * language processing; see https://wiki.tei-c.org/index.php?title=Mapping_language_processing * and, if we have ample time left over, we could re-tackle ticket #399<https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/issues/399>: <code> in <desc> gets dropped in rng

Evaluating the "Copia" version of the Guidelines
by Elisa Beshero-Bondar 04 Nov '20

04 Nov '20

Dear Council, After I had to exit early from this morning's Stylesheets meeting I was eager to see how Syd's "Copia" output of the Guidelines turned out. (For those who missed it, Syd found a quick way to output the Guidelines in a way that would prevent suppression of examples in other languages, and this seems mainly to affect the way the Guidelines Spec pages turn out (not the Guidelines chapter examples). I saw in the minutes that we're asked to review Syd's interesting output, named "Copia" (for more copious examples) and report back to the Council list. So started exploring element spec pages a little this evening. Here's what I'm finding: The bibl element is much improved by the Copia output: the examples are far more diverse, but not bewildering in number. I think it is fascinating to see non-English variety: - Copia: https://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/temp/4TEICouncil/html_GLs_all_eg_en/ref-bibl.… - Current: https://tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ref-bibl.html The byline element is similarly a lot more interesting now: - Copia: https://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/temp/4TEICouncil/html_GLs_all_eg_en/ref-bylin… - Current: https://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ref-byline.html The gap element seems similarly improved, though there's a little problem here: - Copia: https://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/temp/4TEICouncil/html_GLs_all_eg_en/ref-gap.h… - Current: https://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ref-gap.html What I noticed right away was, the number of examples did not seem overwhelming, and the variety of languages evident before you had to click "Show All" reflects a good diversity with Asian languages rising to the fore. However(!) the duplicate example jumps out--duplicates in English. Turns out the French exemplum is identical to the English here, and I"m not really sure why. I think I've seen that in other specs as well. Meanwhile, the element p looks a bit more interesting now, and I think it improves on the current output: - Copia: https://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/temp/4TEICouncil/html_GLs_all_eg_en/ref-p.html - Current: https://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ref-p.html How about ab? Completely boring: no change at all, and it's sadly evident that we don't have enough examples in the first place. (If that isn't a ticket yet, it should be!) - Copia: https://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/temp/4TEICouncil/html_GLs_all_eg_en/ref-ab.ht… - Current: https://tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ref-ab.html Okay-that's a start: a review of 5 out of 582 element specs (less than one percent...sigh). But so far I like the Copia version for what it illuminates about our range of exempla, both where it is diverse and where it is lacking. Looking forward to hearing what others think!

Stylesheets meeting Tue 03 Nov 20
by Bauman, Syd 01 Nov '20

01 Nov '20

We are scheduled to hold a Stylesheets meeting this coming Tue 03 Nov 22. Note the time may be different due to recent DST shift in north America: * 06:00 PST * 09:00 EST * 14:00 GMT (and UTC) * 15:00 CET The topic is pre-ordained from the VF2F Council meeting. The goal is to generate a version of the Stylesheets (in a branch, of course) that puts all examples in every language into the Guidelines outputs. Our fearless leader has prepared a GoogleDoc for us, which has the notes from the VF2F and can be used to take notes during the Stylesheets meeting.[1] Is Hangouts still OK for everyone?

TEI Customizations ODD issues?
by Hugh Cayless 29 Oct '20

29 Oct '20

Hi All, I guess this question is mostly for Syd, but since the customizations ODD is an exemplar, we're all kind of responsible for it. If I have bug reports, should I make GitHub issues for them? Issues I've run into: 1) @role="nonfatal" I think is not understood as a warning, and gets you the usual red underline/error presentation. I feel like warn and/or info might be better. Oxygen's supported role levels seem to be: "warn" or "warning" "error" "fatal" "info" or "information" 2) default values for required attributes are flagged. I can sort of see the logic there, but they're not *really* the same thing. 3) non-"tei:" schemes in @source are discouraged, but what if your source isn't a TEI release? I've got a couple of these, and I'd like to be able to put a URI in there without being yelled at. Hugh

Stylesheets 7.50.1
by Syd Bauman 16 Oct '20

16 Oct '20

This morning Martin & I released Stylesheets 7.50.1 on GitHub, Sourcefoge, and as the Debian packages. We did not release a new oXygen plug-in, as the bug that was fixed was part of the commandline `transformtei` script, which oXygen does not use to run the stylesheets. We (actually, Martin gets the credit) realized that our previous concern about the `tei-install.sh` program with respect to the oXygen plug-in was incorrect, so closed that ticket. Worth noting it took us nearly an hour, even though we had all the pieces ready to rock-and-roll. If we were doing this every week, it could be done a whole lot faster. But infamiliarity and insecurity makes it a slow process. Martin -- are there any updates we would recommend to TCW 22?
