Re: [Tei-council] Next F2F meeting

Hi Martina and Council, I'd be happy to have you here in Newcastle, though presumably there would be a council meeting here shortly before the TEI2021 conference and while we have repeated venues before (notably in Oxford for financial savings when Lou, Sebastian, and I were all there), you should bear that in mind when deciding.

nominations for Council chair
by Syd Bauman 20 Nov '19

20 Nov '19

We will elect the 2020 Council Chair at our Dec meeting.[1] At our Nov meeting yesterday only 1 person (MS, incumbent) was nominated to run for Council Chair. If anyone would like to submit a nomination for Chair, including self nominations, please do so by Tue 03 Dec. (Send e-mail to this list or to MS.) New members-to-be (MB, NC, JL): * Reminder -- the archives of this list are public. * You cannot actually submit a nomination or vote. But if there is someone you think should be nominated say so, and almost assuredly someone else will nominate her or him for you. BTW, we have never discussed this, but as far as I'm concerned someone whose term starts in Jan *is* eligible to run for Chair, even if not eligible to vote. (Someone whose term ends in Dec is not currently eligible to run, but is eligible to vote.[2]) It is probably a very bad idea for someone who has never served on Council to be its Chair, but it is allowed. And, e.g., if James Cummings is elected to Council again some years from now, this allows Council to decide he should step right back into the Chair's seat. Notes ----- [1] Which meeting I think will be Tue 10 Dec 14:00Z (06:00 PST, 09:00 EST, 14:00 GMT, 15:00 CEST -- do we have any other time zones represented?). If I'm wrong on that, please let me know or I will miss it. [2] Note that if no one who will be on Council in 2020 were willing to run, the Bylaws III.3 have an alternate mechanism that allows nomination of non-Councilors. But since MS is willing to run, this does not come into play.

Reminder: Intro to Local Build Processes: Special Council Hangout
by Elisa Beshero-Bondar 18 Nov '19

18 Nov '19

Greetings, Council (cc :Martin) Want to help me set the date for this special Council hangout? (see below). Only six of us responded to the poll, and while of course we don't all need to be there, I'd hoped we might get a few more of us together for this. Here's a link to the scheduling poll: https://doodle.com/poll/savvhuaszhqg4tw6 If more of you respond before our Council meeting on Tuesday perhaps we can finalize the date and the hour then. Thanks! Elisa ********************************************** Dear TEI Council colleagues, During today's Stylesheets meeting, those Council members present (me, Martina, Hugh, Syd, and James) agreed that we'd like to organize a special meeting for Council members (new and current) to learn how to run build processes locally for both the TEI Guidelines and the TEI Stylesheets, and also to learn how these processes mutually depend on each other. I agreed to get us started to organize it. For this meeting to work, we'll need the people who are experienced and comfortable with local builds to be present (and also to coordinate a bit in advance to help organize how we proceed)--we're looking at Hugh, Peter, Raff, and Martin. :-) We'll prepare a Google Doc for shared writing to improve and update our documentation on local build processes. We're not thinking anyone should have to do this with Jenkins running locally--but we should probably talk about if/when that's a good idea. And we're really wanting this to be a hands-on practice and documentation session of Guidance that Every Council Member can Access to do local builds when needed. When? A fine day in December for about two hours: We thought December would be an appropriate month for this for reasons of it being a time of transition as new members are joining us and in the process of learning more about how the TEI works, and also because it's a moment when for those of us on teaching semesters, we can find a little more time to spend with reconfiguring things on our computers to get things working properly. We also don't want to impose too much on people's holiday time. For right now, we thought we'd start with a fairly narrow window of days, December 18, 19, and 20, and I've opened up a wide range of possible two-hour blocks. Would you respond to the Doodle Poll we've set up to arrange this special meeting? https://doodle.com/poll/savvhuaszhqg4tw6 For the new Council members joining us: Those of us mentoring you will probably want to do an orientation session or two a little ahead of this meeting to help prepare you. Let's start talking about that soon. :-) Thanks, everyone! -- Elisa Beshero-Bondar, PhD Associate Professor of English University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg Humanities Division 150 Finoli Drive Greensburg, PA 15601 USA E-mail: ebb8(a)pitt.edu

Hi Syd, Yeah, I've long outsourced my life to Google the way some do to Apple or Microsoft. Indeed one can use our both by app (that sounds right to me) and Web. I find the Web version more reliable to be honest but video conferencing never works well on my phone regardless of what sort. ;-) I've consultation hours at that point so may have students showing up occasionally so may come go. Apologies to everyone if that is the case.

I am (almost) a complete Google Ignoramous, so am very happy to hear that my perception of reality is a bit skewed and we can keep using the Google Thing we've been using before. But I note your use of the word "app", implying that there is a smartphone app I could run to join the conversation on Tuesday. (I am afraid there is a good chance I will not be at a computer.) I have to admit, that thought had not occured to me. I just tried to find it ... is it "Hangouts Meet by Google"? I suppose I could try https://hangouts.google.com on Safari on my phone, but that sounds a bit odd. > When you say "In the past we've met in Google Hangouts, but I > understand some folks want to move on to a technology that is not > being actively dismantled.
