Agreed. That sounds much clearer.

Subject: Re: [tei-council] outputRendition spec
I support the new version. Thanks, Lou.

The <remarks> for this element currently read:
"<p>The <gi>outputRendition</gi> element differs from the <gi>rendition</gi> element describes rendering information in one or more possible outputs, usually recorded in the TEI customization file, the latter must only be used to document the original rendition of the source text.</p>"
- As far as I know <outputRendition> can only appear inside an ODD file, so why "usually" ? - If @useSourceRendition is true, then the <rendition> element *will* affect the output.
I'm proposing the following revision:
<p>This component of an element specification describes the rendering or appearance intended for all occurrences of the element in a specified context for a specified type of output. The <rendition> element, by contrast, describes the actual rendering or appearance of all occurrences of the specified element in a source document. The <att>useSourceRendition</att> attribute may however be used to indicate that formatting information provided by a <gi>rendition</gi> element is to be combined with any provided by an <gi>outputRendition</gi> element.</p> <p>It is strongly recommended that the W3C Cascading Stylesheet language (CSS2 or later) be used to express the required formatting information.</p>
(The second paragraph modulo whatever we decide to do about the CSS or what debate)
