Notes on standoff
by Hugh Cayless 08 May '15

08 May '15

I’m finally getting a chance to look seriously at the standoff ODD and so I wanted to pull together my own notes and get some discussion going here that we can feed back to the proposers. 1) Why such an elaborate header? (see https://github.com/laurentromary/stdfSpec/blob/master/Specification/standof… <https://github.com/laurentromary/stdfSpec/blob/master/Specification/standof…>) I can understand wanting to have some description of the content of <stdf> (or <ldb> as Syd proposed—I happen to like that better), but this seems maybe a bit overboard. Why can’t the document’s own revisionDesc serve to document revisions to the standoff section, for example? 2) Since standoff elements can nest, why do we need the <annotations> element? (see https://github.com/laurentromary/stdfSpec/blob/master/Specification/standof… <https://github.com/laurentromary/stdfSpec/blob/master/Specification/standof…>). Wouldn’t it be simpler to allow the standoff element just to contain a heading and its content, optionally including more standoff elements? 3) I can sort of guess what <mapStruct> might be for, but it isn’t very clear (see https://github.com/laurentromary/stdfSpec/blob/master/Specification/standof… <https://github.com/laurentromary/stdfSpec/blob/master/Specification/standof…>). Do we not already have sufficient mechanisms for attaching standoff markup to its targets? That’s all I’ve got for now. What do you think? We’re going to beam Laurent in for a discussion at the F2F on Friday the 29th at 10:00.

Problems with the UVic Jenkins server
by Martin Holmes 05 May '15

05 May '15

Hi all, Just a heads-up that a router update early this morning screwed up a bunch of our virtual machines when their filesystems became inaccessible; and then on restarting, an old obsolete machine was substituted accidentally for our current Jenkins server, and the latter may have been lost completely. Don't ask how such a thing could happen. Anyway, it means we may not have a UVic Jenkins for a while (I'm leaving town for a conference tomorrow morning). The Oxford Jenkins, meanwhile, has run out of disk space. :-( This may mean that I end up doing something I was hoping to put off till the summer: writing the new Jenkins build script and testing it. But that's hard to do on a crappy old laptop that can't run VMs, so it'll have to wait till I get back next week. There's a chance Systems can salvage our Jenkins, though. Keep your fingers crossed. Cheers, Martin

Fall F2F Dates
by Hugh Cayless 29 Apr '15

29 Apr '15

Hi All, Emmanuelle Morlock asks if we can nail down dates for the Fall F2F ASAP so that she can reserve rooms. Workshop dates may fall on Oct. 26, 27, or the morning of the 28th. There will probably be an EpiDoc one that I may need to help run. Options I see are: 1. Meeting on Sunday (25th) and Monday (26th) 2. Meeting the weekend before the conference (24th–25th) 3. Meeting concurrently with the workshops, and have some council members drop out for some of the time to deal with their workshops 4. Don't do any workshops 5. Don't meet before the conference. So what do you think? Is anyone else proposing a workshop?

updated framework not used in conversion
by Lou Burnard 29 Apr '15

29 Apr '15

I'm puzzled... I have installed all the recent updates to the TEI framework from the TEI site, and my local .com.oxygen.xml directory contains an updated version of one of the XSLT scripts provided as a result: -rw-rw-r-- 1 lou lou 13520 Apr 29 12:02 ./.com.oxygenxml/extensions/v16.1/frameworks/http___www.tei_c.org_release_oxygen_updateSite.oxygen/tei/xml/tei/stylesheet/profiles/oulipo/from_common.xsl However, when I actually run the conversion from within oXygen, it does not use this version, but instead the one released ages ago, which is still in the installation directory: -rw-r--r-- 1 lou lou 9612 Jan 22 13:43 ./OxygenXMLEditor16/frameworks/tei/xml/tei/stylesheet/profiles/oulipo/from_common.xsl The Ant script I am running in my transformation says "Loading stylesheet /home/lou/OxygenXMLEditor16/frameworks/tei/xml/tei/stylesheet/profiles/oulipo/docx/from.xsl" It also uses the build-from.xml file from the same directory, rather than the one one in the .com.oxygml tree, which is however identical. But since it uses relative paths, maybe that is the problem? Any advice much appreciated...

Teleconference April 24
by Hugh Cayless 24 Apr '15

24 Apr '15

Hi All, We have a telecon scheduled for next Friday, April 24th. Any chance we can push it back to 06:00 PDT / 09:00 EDT / 14:00 BST / 15:00 CEST? I have a conflict at 8:30 due to my own carelessness. We could make this change permanent in fact, if no-one objects. It would mean Martin doesn't have to get up so brutally early. I no longer have a conflict at 10:00 every Friday, so we could push it later. We're (as previously decided) going to attempt to do this in a Google Hangout. I will send an invite to the list a few minutes before start time. I've started an agenda at http://wiki.tei-c.org/index.php/Council_Agenda_2015-04 to which you should feel free to add items for discussion. I've got a couple more to put in myself. May's telecon will obviously be canceled because we'll be in Ann Arbor. Thanks, Hugh

Oxygen release
by Martin Holmes 20 Apr '15

20 Apr '15

George Bina confirms there will be no new Oxygen release before 17, scheduled for the end of April/beginning of May. That's perfect timing for us. It gives a window of three weeks for our version of the plugin to be out in the wild and in general use before the Oxygen guys build the version they'll be including with the Oxygen distro. Cheers, Martin

Fwd: [tei:bugs] #749 fatal bug in 2.8.0 apropos att.global.rendition
by Martin Holmes 14 Apr '15

14 Apr '15

Do we need a 2.8.1 to be done fairly quickly for this? This really is my fault, but I must admit I had no idea what @predeclare was about; I was assuming the regular tests would pick up anything problematic, and I had no trouble working with @rend and @rendition in my projects for several months before release. I don't use DTDs, of course. Cheers, Martin -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [tei:bugs] #749 fatal bug in 2.8.0 apropos att.global.rendition Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2015 17:19:19 +0000 From: Sebastian Rahtz <rahtz(a)users.sf.net> Reply-To: Ticket 749 <749(a)bugs.tei.p.re.sf.net> To: Ticket 749 <749(a)bugs.tei.p.re.sf.net> --- ** [bugs:#749] fatal bug in 2.8.0 apropos att.global.rendition** **Status:** open **Group:** AMBER **Created:** Tue Apr 14, 2015 05:19 PM UTC by Sebastian Rahtz **Last Updated:** Tue Apr 14, 2015 05:19 PM UTC **Owner:** nobody I am afraid the `<classSpec>` at.global.rendition is missing the vital attribute predeclare="true". I have committed the appropriate change to fix it. This means that any ODD which redefines @rend, @rendition etc is going to fail when it comes to making a DTD. You may now formally curse the day DTDs were invented. I might note that a few existing ODD users are going to be mighty confused when they find their code to change @rend globally simply fails to work these days. In retrospect, it would have been good to highlight this in the release notes. --- Sent from sourceforge.net because you indicated interest in <https://sourceforge.net/p/tei/bugs/749/> To unsubscribe from further messages, please visit <https://sourceforge.net/auth/subscriptions/>

Fall meeting
by Martin Holmes 13 Apr '15

13 Apr '15

Hi all, The CfP for the fall Members Meeting is out, and we have to start making plans. I'd like us if we can to agree soon whether we want to have the fall Council meeting along with it (I think we'd all like to do that), and if so, whether it's going to be before or after, so we can plan work absences and travel. Can we have a show of hands on who would prefer before the main meeting and who would prefer after? I'd rather have Council meet before, so I'm fresh going into the Council meetings and so we can report informally on what we've been doing during the members meeting. Cheers, Martin

Release day instructions
by Martin Holmes 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

Hi all, This is meant mainly for Raff, James, Hugh and anyone else likely to be helping with the release process. I took a quick look through TCW 22, the release instructions, in advance of the release, and noticed some problems. The most obvious is that the oxygen-tei instructions were out of date; they pointed to the Google Code project. I've fixed that, but when I went to test out the rest of that instruction block, I found it doesn't work; the structure of the Vault seems to have changed a bit since those instructions were written, or perhaps they were never actually right. The instructions talked about a file x.x.x/updateSite.oxygen, where x.x.x is the version number, but actually the update file at in x.x.x/oxygen/updateSite.oxygen. I've fixed that. Since James's blog post has the right URL for the file: <http://blogs.it.ox.ac.uk/jamesc/2014/04/02/auto-update-your-tei-framework-i…> I assume the instructions have not been right for some time. James, you'll have to update your blog post to point to the new GitHub location for the oxygen-tei source code. Those same instructions in TCW 22 only take account of major releases (which luckily this is -- it's 2.7 -> 2.8) so they'll have to be elaborated a bit for situations in which you're actually changing a version within the same folder, as minor point-releases do. There's one other thing we'll need to work on. The original version of the instructions has point 8 like this: <quote> 8. Still in ~/private/P5/Utilities, run ./tei-database-rebuild.sh This will update the eXist-db used by Roma. The script takes no parameters but expects a configuration file in the user’s home directory at ~/etc/tei-exist.conf with the appropriate paths and credentials. For the main server at tei-c.org this should already be set and no adjustments should be needed. This is the database used by Roma, so this operation will ensure that Roma is using the new version. Temporary measure for version 2.7.0 only: ask Martin, Peter, James or Sebastian to check the version of P5 used by Roma, to ensure that this has succeeded, and fix it manually if it has not. This procedure is undergoing revision right now, so it has to be done there may be a problem here. Following the release of 2.7.0, a new process will be put in place and this instructions will be updated. </quote> We obviously dropped the ball there. I've edited this a bit so that it's less confusing, but we'll still have to make sure we know how to check the version of P5 which is in eXist when the script has been run. I know the URL to go to in order to do that, but we can't put it in the documentation for various reasons; I'd like to make sure enough other people know it so that there's always someone available to check when the time comes. I'm going to raise a bug that forces us to work on this; it's an aspect of the whole shebang which is very fragile. Anyone else likely to be on duty for the release might want to check that TCW 22 makes sense to them too: <http://www.tei-c.org/Activities/Council/Working/tcw22.xml> Raff, are you already set up with your SSH key for tei-c.org?

Poll for dataNode discussion
by Hugh Cayless 31 Mar '15

31 Mar '15

Dear all, At the meeting this morning we decided to try to kill two birds with one stone: we want to have a proper discussion of Lou's proposals for pointing to datatypes in Pure ODD (see http://sourceforge.net/p/tei/feature-requests/530/) and we want to see if Google Hangouts are a suitable medium for meetings. We agreed to try to do this next week, at around the same time as we hold Council meetings, with as many people as we can manage. Here's the poll: http://doodle.com/nbhyigzs94vqida8 It would be nice if we could get a bunch of you in, just so that we'll have a proper test and discussion. I don't think this will take a full hour, though of course it depends how chatty/argumentative we are. :-)

Fwd: Build failed in Jenkins: TEIP5-Test #2588
by Martin Holmes 30 Mar '15

30 Mar '15

Raff, your commit seems to have failed to build, and the email that Jenkins tried to send you to let you know bounced (the SF server says rviglianti(a)users.sourceforge.net does not exist). Could you take a look at the error message below and see if you can fix the problems? It looks as though: < <ERROR>egXML points to non-existent #VESA-eg-1 < (TEI[1]/text[2]/body[3]/div["VE"]/div["VESA"]/p[6]/) </ERROR> you didn't actually add VESA-eg-1 to the Bibliography. < <ERROR>id 'said1297' used more than once</ERROR> < <ERROR>id 'said1298' used more than once</ERROR> < <ERROR>id 'said1299' used more than once</ERROR> xml:ids were used multiple times, which I think is a no-no, even in examples; they're also validated.

datatypes coming back to bite us
by Syd Bauman 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

As you may recall, on our conference call Fri we agreed I'd try to get Schematron checks for the default value problems Lou pointed out in FR 546[1] ready for inclusion in next release. The cases that we'd like to check are * If the attribute being defined is required, a default value should not be defined. * If the attribute being defined has a closed list of values, then the default value should be among the enumerated list. That second one causes a problem; I've hit a predictable snag. We have explicitly (and unwisely IMHO) permitted whitespace in the value of an attribute defined as a member of an enumerated set of values. Thus it is perfectly legal in TEI to have <valItem ident="Bono"/> <valItem ident="Enya"/> <valItem ident="Diana"/> <valItem ident="Prince"/> <valItem ident="Madonna"/> <valItem ident="Pat Benetar"/> <valItem ident="Diana Prince"/> <valItem ident="Michael Jackson"/> As I've argued before, this makes it difficult to differentiate multiple singleton values from single multiples. E.g., presume the above list is associated with <datatype minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="3"> <rng:ref name="data.enumerated"/> </datatype> Then is the value "Diana Prince" one value or two?[2] This problem comes up because we actually have a <defaultVal> that has multiple singleton values: namely the default for the optional @type of <metDecl>, is "met real". (AFAIK we don't have any @ident of <valItem> that contain whitespace.) Now, since the attributes allows 1-3 occurrences of its closed value list of "met", "real", and "rhyme", we (humans) know that the default value must be two singleton values, "met" and "real". But the Schematron check is a different story. If I write the test to match the datatype, I would use string( chlid::defaultVal ) = child::valList/valItem/@ident But that means "met real" doesn't match. If I write the test to presume whitespace-separated singletons, I would use tokenize( normalize-space( child::defaultVal ),' ') = child::valList/valItem/@ident (And remember, these are XPath 2 expressions, so the '=' operator operates on sequences, not single values.) The problem with writing the test that 2nd way is that then a user who takes advantage of the fact that we allow spaces in enumerated lists will get a false error message when she tries <attDef ident="Q1" mode="add"> <defaultVal>one two</defaultVal> <valList type="closed"> <valItem ident="one two"/> <valItem ident="three four"/> </valList> </attDef> (And, I'd have to do better than normalize-space() if we wanted to take possible leading or trailing space into account.) I'm really not sure what to do about this. Possibilities include: 1) Use the first method (string), and change the build process so that the error on "met real" is ignored. 2) Change the definition of <metDecl> so that the default value of @type is discussed in prose, not given in <defaultVal>. 3) Change the test to use the first method (string) iff maxOccurs is 1 (or unspecified), and to use the second method (tokenize) iff maxOccurs is 2+ (or "unbounded"). Other suggestions? I think (1) and (2) are pretty much cop-outs, but not crazy. I think either may be acceptable as a temporary hack, but neither is a good long-term solution. I think (3) does the easy cases right, but I haven't thought through the harder cases. (That said, probably no one should be using the harder cases.) Notes ----- [1] https://sourceforge.net/p/tei/feature-requests/546/?page=0 [2] To complicate things we've (very unwisely IMHO) defined @ident of <valItem> and the content of <defaultVal> as rng:string and <rng:text>, respectively, as opposed to rng:token (or better yet, something that does not allow whitespace like data.word). That said a) our ODD processing software silently converts the value of @ident of <valItem> from rng:string to rng:token b) even using rng:token doesn't really fix this problem c) no matter what you do, you probably don't get the results you expect Let me know if you want evidence of (c).

This will be the one with the time shift: March 27, 8:30 am EDT, 5:30 PDT, 12:30 GMT, 13:30 CET. I've put up a stub agenda at http://wiki.tei-c.org/index.php/Council_Agenda_2015-03 Please add items you think should be discussed or reported on. I'm at a meeting Mon.-Wed., so won't be able to do much prep. We grumbled a bit about the medium at the last meeting and wondered about trying a Google Hangout instead. Is this something everyone would like to try next time? Sent from my phone.

conference call in 6 hours
by Syd Bauman 26 Mar '15

26 Mar '15

I may be a bit tired, but I plan to attend. (To see why, check out http://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/albums/2015-03-27_car_fire/; interesting to note that the table of metadata is generated with XSLT 1.0.) Can someone post * the phone number to call and conferene number to punch in; and * the URL of the minutes, if we're doing that in GoogleDocs again? Thanks.

Done. I have copies of the last downloads just in case. They should probably go somewhere for archive, but we're against "obsolete" folders in repos IIRC, so I don't know where we should put them. What about tei-emacs? Cheers, Martin > -- > Sebastian Rahtz > Chief Data Architect > University of Oxford IT Services > 13 Banbury Road, Oxford OX2 6NN. Phone +44 1865 283431 > > >
