Dear TEI Technical Council,

Welcome to the week of a TEI Release! We have a release scheduled this week on August 15, with great thanks to our release technicians, Helena, Elli, Trish, with Joey as our Pacific Rim monitor. 

Note that there's a TEI Council meeting conveniently scheduled tomorrow in the middle of our release week, and I suspect it may be helpful for us. :-) The meeting will be from 10:30–12:00 PDT | 13:30–15:00 EDT | 18:30–20:00 UTC | 19:30–21:00 CET
* at our usual Zoom: https://psu.zoom.us/j/98850059066?pwd=UzhBL2NFc1lweWYzS2xZd2dqYVZpdz09 
Meeting ID: 988 5005 9066
password: tei

We will definitely need to reschedule our Council meeting times, so I'll circulate a calendar poll very shortly. 

As for the release(!): we have been in a state of refrigeration for the preceding week, and very shortly we transition to freeze. Technically we should be in a freeze today, but a few of us may be working (heatedly) on some tickets that we want to include in this release. 

For all of us, it will help us greatly if you can check the tickets assigned to you on GitHub for TEI and Stylesheets and punt some of them to the next release milestone (TEI 4.11 or Stylesheets 7.60) or finish up work expeditiously on anything nearly ready for the 4.10 / 7.59 release milestones this week. 

Thanks, and see you on Slack!
