It’s a good point. If we do want a new release we should cherry pick just the fixes that that are essential. So I’m minded at this point to say that if council do want to do it, we should do it after the weekend at this point.
If a consensus emerges to do a release, I’ll make the new branch, and cherry-pick fixes into it, but I’ll wait until there is consensus!

Subject: Re: [Tei-council] Fairly urgent bug in recent releases
I would say, yes, fix the symlinks. I don't think that requires a new release.
I'm not opposed to a point release, though I don't think it's super urgent. I'm on vacation this week and actually away from my house(!) but will be back this weekend and in a position to help out as needed. I don't have a good read on what other stuff has gone in to the GLs since the last release. Will we want to be careful about where we make the release branch from?

a) another point release: While I do not share Martin’s near panic, I do think the schemas and the Guidelines are broken enough that a point release as soon as reasonable is in order. And big thanks to Nick for be willing to do it. I am not likely to be of much help until Sat 03 Apr, though.
b) missing symlinks: I can try to take a look tomorrow afternoon (my time), but if anyone gets there earlier, all the better.

my 2c regarding
a) another point release: I don’t consider the schemas nor the Guidelines badly broken so don’t feel the pressure myself but won’t stand in the way ;)
b) the Stylesheets documentation: I haven’t been at the Stylesheets meeting (and couldn’t find anything in the minutes) but I assume it’s about the 404 at https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftei-c.org%... Since the Stylesheets documentation is properly residing in the Vault at https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftei-c.org%... I think it’s merely the missing symlinks I complained about in my email "TEI release directory structure“ from March 1st. If someone could take another look and tell me „ok, go!“ then I'll dare to change those links and hopefully fix the release directory structure for the future.
