ODD compilation
by Lou Burnard 30 Mar '18

30 Mar '18

I've just discovered something which is definitely a bug, though I'm not sure whether it's in my understanding of how ODD processors ought to behave or in the current incarnation of odd2odd. As you will recall, this stylesheet is supposed to "compile" an ODD into a form which can then be re-used by other ODDs. It looks to me as if it ignores anything other than deletions. For example, suppose my base ODD changes att.global.rendition by removing one of the attributes it supplies, changes the content model of some element, and supplies a valList for some attribute which didn't have one before. The first change is reflected in the compiled ODD generated by odd2odd, but neither the second nor the third is. This is quite a shock (if it's not just a bug in the code) as it considerably reduces the usefulness of odd chaining as a technique. Anyone else noticed it?

Modifying the content model of the event element
by James Cummings 28 Mar '18

28 Mar '18

Hi Council, (Martin Holmes CC'd) I've made proposal on https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/issues/1756 and wonder if council members have a moment whether they could give it a read, comment there, vote on which you prefer, etc. It is a fairly small change (adding idno to the content model of event, and ptr to event/person/place/org) that would have numerous benefits for many projects dealing with named entities (of which I consider event something that is much of a named entity as person/place/org). Since 2012 council has agreed a desire to rationalise the content models of person/place/org (and I would add 'event' to that list of entities): c.f. https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/issues/367 my suggestions on this ticket work under the principle that any proposed smaller changes that bring the content models of named entities into greater cohesion of content models and doesn't preclude later rationalisation are probably a good ideas. We shouldn't need to wait for the perfect solution to implement smaller ones.

F2F Tokyo
by Scholger, Martina (martina.scholger＠uni-graz.at) 26 Mar '18

26 Mar '18

Hi all, sorry for being so quiet since our F2F in Cologne. As most of you already know, I successully defended my dissertation and the thundercloud above my head has disappeared... I'm in contact with Susan and Kyionori about the F2F meeting in Tokyo. The TEI conference (Sun 9th - Thu 13th) takes place in conjunction with the JADH conference (Sun 9th - Tue 11th). The TEI workshops are on Sunday (full day) and Monday morning. Magda, you said that you want to do a workshop - do you plan full-day or half-day? Is anyone else planning a workshop? I think we could ask the program committee to schedule workshops from Council members according to our request. The Board meeting is planned for Monday morning (Hugh and I have to be there). I think our options - assuming that Kiyonori can arrange rooms accordingly - are: a) Thu 6th - Sat 8th b) Fri 7th - Sun 9th (in case nobody want's to do a full-day workshop and half-day workshops are scheduled for monday) c) Thu 13th afternoon - Sat 15th (but that would mean only 2,5 days - and no excursion) d) Fri 14th - Sun 16th e) to split our meeting (I'm not in favour) Please let me know your preferences concerning our meeting. The program committee (resp. Susan Schreibman) would be very pleased about numerous contributions from the Council. Who is planning to submit something? Should we think of doing a workshop / a panel together?

Hi Martina, I favour a) or b) in that list. I'm planning on submitting something individually but would also be willing to take part in joint council activities if we want to do something.

Addition/change of TEI@Paderborn addresses
by Peter Stadler 26 Mar '18

26 Mar '18

Dear Ian, may I ask you (on behalf of the TEI Council) to change the current DNS record for jenkins-paderborn.tei-c.org to point at 193.175.67.218? Additionally, I’ve set up an OxGarage instance there so it’d be great if you could add oxgarage-paderborn.tei-c.org as a subdomain and point it at the same IP?! Many thanks in advance Peter -- Peter Stadler Musikwissenschaftliches Seminar Detmold/Paderborn Hornsche Str. 39 D-32756 Detmold Tel. +49 5231 975-676 Fax: +49 5231 975-668 pstadler at mail.uni-paderborn.de http://muwi-detmold-paderborn.de

P5/ReleaseNotes/ChangeLog
by Peter Stadler 24 Mar '18

24 Mar '18

Hi Council, Martina discovered during last release that the write_changelog script didn’t clean up properly after running. I promised to fix this (which I just did in https://github.com/TEIC/TEI/commit/e9206ef7dcb689334be51d55734f3f5315ff78ae) but came across a bigger issue. I.e., the script didn’t write proper changelog information sind release 3.0.0 because of an additional blank line which fools the `head -1`. Anyway, I wonder whether anyone ever looks into P5/ReleaseNotes/ChangeLog which is a mere copy of the history you can view from GitHub (or any other git client). So, I think that might have served some purpose back in the old (subversion) days but couldn’t we simply remove that file (along with the script and the build step) now? Best Peter

oxgarage.euryanthe.de
by Peter Stadler 17 Mar '18

17 Mar '18

Dear all, I’ve set up a new OxGarage instance at oxgarage.euryanthe.de and would like to get some feedback from you heavy users. It’s actually two OxGarage docker containers (created from https://hub.docker.com/r/teic/oxgarage/) running behind a load balancer on a Rancher platform (http://rancher.com) served via HTTPS. The URL is not supposed to be stable forever, at present it’s for testing only – when everything works out fine I hope we can turn it into something like oxgarage-paderborn.tei-c.org … Best Peter

teibare slightly broken
by Lou Burnard 08 Mar '18

08 Mar '18

I've just been alerted (thanks Peter) to a problem in the teibare.odd which appears in the current TEI/exemplars directory (and is part of the oxygen TEI framework, updated at each release). According to the text of the ODD "Finally three of the TEI attribute classes are simplified. The attributes xml:space, rend, and xml:base are removed from the att.global class, so that this now makes available to all elements only the following attributes: <att>xml:id</att>, <att>n</att>, and <att>xml:lang</att>. " But of course this is no longer true, because @rend is now supplied by att.global.rendition rather than by att.global (along with a lot of other weird attributes which weren't there before). One solution might be to tie this ODD explicitly to a much earlier release of the Guidelines by means of a @source parameter. That would test whether all the tools in the processing chain Do The Right Thing in such a case. Another might be to bring the ODD up to date, e.g. by deleting the att.global.rendition class. That would probably be less upsetting for existing tools. Or we could just leave well alone, and be prepared to shrug when people complain that TEI Bare is really not as bare as it claims to be...
