Re: [Tei-council] Stylesheets meeting addendum

without looking at the details (of the specific issue) I want Martin's last comment to become our categorical imperativ :) Cheers Peter

I think this comes from letting the ticket mandate get broader and broader. We should stick to one task per ticket, and resist at all costs the temptation to start improving and tidying up everything we come across that doesn't look perfect, because that's an endless task anyway, and it complicates things so we can't easily tell what the problem is when we break something.

Cheers, Martin

We congratulated each other a little prematurely! Are Stylesheets issues ever *really* solved in one hour? In future we will make sure we always tackle these issues in a branch, even when we are trusting the wielder of emacs and starlet to always know the way. :-) Looking forward to a long semester break coming up when I can concentrate on things that take a long time to fix...

 Indeed, there is a severe problem. Evidence, methinks, that we should have done this in a branch. Sigh. Anyway, I have ascertained that the problem is caused by the removal of the teix:egXML template from html/html_tagdocs.xsl. So obviously we could just put it back, that solves the problem.

But it is not a good solution, IMHO, to have two of the exact same template in two seaprate files. I am going to suggest it is worth some time to figure out an alternate solution. (If we cannot find a solution, or just get fed up before we do, we can always put it back, and go on with successful Stylesheets and our tail between our legs. :-)

No time to look at anything today, unfortunately.
