victims of version vagueness
by Bauman, Syd 25 Jun '24

25 Jun '24

I started working on the teidata.version = teidata.version.unicode | teidata.version.semver | teidata.version.calver | teidata.whatever system today. (In a branch I have not committed, let alone pushed.) Less than halfway through the process I ran into a (moderately embarrassing) problem. It turns out calVer<https://calver.org/> is not a calendar-based version numbering system as we had assumed during our recent discussions. It is rather a cheerleading document in favor of calendar-based versioning in general, with both a breakdown of the potential components such a version number might use, and a list of specific projects that use a calendar-based version numbering system (along with the pattern of aforementioned components that project uses). My first reaction is I have no idea what we should do about this. My second reaction is I can easily scope out a range of options, as follows. 1. Do nothing with calVer — drop it from the list of TEI datatypes-to-be. 2. Go whole-hog: For every system described by calVer, create a TEI datatype that validates it. E.g., the datatype for the Ubuntu system would be defined with something like <dataRef name="token" restriction="([4-9]|[1-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9][0-9])\.(0[[0-9]|1[0-2])(\.[0-9]+)?"/> Datatypes could be named flatly, e.g. teidata.version.ubuntu, or could be named hierarchicly, e.g. teidata.version.calendar.ubuntu. 3. Something in between. (E.g., calVer divides systems into case studies, notables, and others; maybe do #2 but only for the case study ones.) I really don’t like #1, because, in general, this is a great way to do version numbering. I encourage everyone to scan the major portions of the calVer document, if not read the whole thing.

May Council Meeting changed to May 15, Buenos Aires travel doc
by Elisa Beshero-Bondar 08 May '24

08 May '24

Dear Council members, The Council meeting we’d planned for this Friday May 10 is now postponed to Wednesday May 15 at a new time: - 10:30am - noon Pacific time (Joey) - 1:30 - 3pm Eastern Time (Syd, Raff, Elisa) - 7:30 - 9pm CET (Sabine, Martina, Torsten, et al) It will be the usual Zoom link: https://psu.zoom.us/j/98850059066?pwd=UzhBL2NFc1lweWYzS2xZd2dqYVZpdz09 (Password: tei) I've also started a very rough Google Doc <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EVwA5vbreWLUeyWJU286g43t4XKkIm2otkjjrtK…> to assist our travel planning to Buenos Aires. We're awaiting details on the locations of Council's meetings, but I think we'll have that very soon. Traditionally, Council members share arrival times / flight numbers (etc) here so we can look out for each other and try to meet at airports / stations as we arrive and depart. Please feel free to begin sharing your information here. We also have started using two new channels in Slack: * #f2f-planning * #tei-conference (where Torsten has begun discussing travel plans) One more thing! We need to determine dates for summer monthly meetings ahead of our trip to Buenos Aires, so please be thinking of good times of day and dates for our one 90-minute meeting per month. See you soon, and many thanks for all you do for the TEI!

CMC-SIG repo now a TEIC branch
by Bauman, Syd 15 Mar '24

15 Mar '24

I have created a new branch in the TEIC/TEI repo called “cmc”. It is a squashed fork of the TEI-CMC-SIG/TEI branch “cmc-features”. What this means (presuming I have done this right) is that most, if not all, further work on the new CMC chapter should be performed in the new branch. Harald and Michael do not have write access to that branch (I don’t think), so if they wish to commit a change they may have to either make a requests of someone who does, or commit to their TEI-CMC-SIG/TEI, in which case we would need to merge. Because there have been some updates to other parts of P5 (although none to CMC itself) in the past few weeks, I have generated new outputs (see below). In addition, Jenkins maintainers may want to make jobs for building the TEI cmc branch against the Stylesheets dev branch. * Guidelines: https://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/temp/CMC/Guidelines-web/en/html/index.html * Exemplars: https://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/temp/CMC/Exemplars/

Agenda for VF2F Fri 3/15 - Sat 3/16
by Elisa Beshero-Bondar 13 Mar '24

13 Mar '24

Dear Council, Here is a draft agenda for our VF2F this weekend <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DeLuEw8p_ZVD9AM8HXX1-a3G9ycQXFsD-u6JD9t…>! Timing and Zoom link to access the VF2F are in the Google Doc. I've also posted the agenda in our Slack (to circulate at 8am EDT today!) Please feel free to add tickets or discussion items for the full Council session, or to prioritize particular tickets and issues that you want to make sure we address sooner rather than later! Also, please make sure I haven’t made timing mistakes for the meeting. Thanks, each of you, for making time for this important work session for Council! For those of you who can't join us, you'll still see lots of activity on the GitHub repos and in Slack, and I hope this VF2F gets us all moving productively on tickets and big issues, rolling toward our next release! Cheers, Elisa -- Elisa Beshero-Bondar, PhD TEI Technical Council Chair Program Chair of Digital Media, Arts, and Technology | Professor of Digital Humanities | Director of the Digital Humanities Lab at Penn State Erie, The Behrend College Development site: https://newtfire.org

TEI Council Upcoming VF2Fs, Modified Meeting schedule
by Elisa Beshero-Bondar 01 Mar '24

01 Mar '24

Greetings, TEI Council! We have a short virtual face-to-face (VF2F) meeting coming up on March 15/16. I'm traveling next week and won't be in a reliable place for internet the day of our scheduled Council call of March 8. I also think we don't really need this meeting with the VF2F. We need to work on our VF2F agenda, so I'll try to get a start on that and share it with the group for modification over the next couple of weeks. So let's cancel the meeting of March 8. If you'd like to use that 90 minutes this Friday to get together and work on a dedicated task or ticket, feel free to use my Council meeting Zoom at https://psu.zoom.us/j/98850059066?pwd=UzhBL2NFc1lweWYzS2xZd2dqYVZpdz09 I shall simply remove that March 8 meeting from our calendar. Cheers and see you in the middle of March!
