Re: [tei-council] TEI Council @ DH?

I visited the blank Google Doc, and I’m baffled about how to proceed. If this is an introductory workshop, it probably shouldn’t be a “bring your own questions about the TEI”: we should actually be teaching something. Here’s my suggestion: for a full day, maybe we want to break this into two concentrated units. I think people who would be drawn to this, as attendees of ADHO, have probably encountered TEI before—I’m not sure where to begin. I’m aware from Elena Pierazzo’s talk last November that people’s access to TEI orientation is limited in Latin America, and this is something we should try to address. I suspect that each of us on Council orients people to TEI in different ways, so I don’t know how to proceed there. For the second half of the workshop, I’d like us to spend some time orienting people to *processing* TEI, because there aren’t enough opportunities for people to begin learning that. I am happy to volunteer as much time as you like to XPath orientation, and I have material written up about that. Where could that lead? I can imagine (and have taught) a basic introduction to XSLT following from XPath, and could imagine something in two hours. I can also imagine training people to play with XPath expressions in XQuery with eXist-db and move from that into simple HTML outputs of charts, lists, etc. I’d really like to do this kind of teaching in the second half of the workshop. Is that okay with people—and can we still pitch this as “introductory”—in the sense of “introductory processing” of TEI?

Hi all (sorry for the delayed response),

I'm also waiting to hear back about my submissions, but I think I might go regardless as I saved my research funds for it.

Hi!

Great to hear that there is so much interest in this! It's very likely that I go there. Could we agree to do a full-day introductory workshop in Mexico? I also think that this would be a good opportunity/place for doing an intro workshop.

I have created a Google Doc (sorry, no content yet) for the proposal: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d41jLLpUXltS8WbVIGRd4NVlm3su_ 3oPm5AkwvDaAwc/edit?usp=sharing If you have any text blocks at hand, please add them.

@Magda & Hugh: if the workshop gets accepted, wouldn't that be a reason to get funding?

Best wishes, Martina

I may be going (depends if paper accepted). The flight alone more than wipes out my research fund so I don't know how I'll be affording hotel, but I've started saving.

I'd happily contribute to a TEI one-day workshop, either giving a talk or being a TEI expert for some sort of consultation surgery "come with your TEI questions" or something.

Best wishes,

James

Sorry, I was typing too fast...let me just resend this: The discussion of TEI and LOD this morning on the TEI-list makes me wonder if that might be a good topic for the ADHO conference? Can we imagine an introductory TEI workshop that incorporates discussion of LOD, and helps people to think about how to design a project for the semantic web? For those of us planning to attend, is this a good topic and interest we share in common? I'm not sure I have time this week to pound out a full proposal, but I think some of us here have some material already to start with...?

Unfortunately I will not be going, had mixed feelings about this gig, and with rather poor reviews for my submissions I stand pretty much where Hugh does :-) Fully support doing some outreach, in particular in a place where it is not as easy to find any TEI workshop as, say, Europe or US.

It is not a given, but very likely I will go. (My daughter will most likely be living in Mexico City this summer.) Happy to teach standard WWP workshop or almost anything else.
