[Sending this again because last time it went to the Brown TEI list.] Fair enough. I think the number and speed of responses on TEI-L suggests that the packages are used and useful, so we should continue to maintain them. The next question is how many of them and which of them; and how do we manage the transition to a new signing key and a new repository location?

Hi Martin,
Isn't this missing the point though? Yes, those using those packages can clone the repositories, but just cloning the repositories doesn't get you the dependencies. That is the benefit of the packages, they point to all the software that needs to be installed before you install this. (Of course, I know Martin knows this, I'm just trying to make the discussion more transparent for those following along. ;-) )

Hi Patrick,
Upshot: I suppose I could do without the deb packages if everything was easily accessible in a modern version control system (well, everything that doesn't have dependencies; if I used tei-roma, e.g., I'd probably appreciate debian getting the other software I need, and perhaps even setting it up for my http server).
At this point, I think everything is in GitHub under TEIC:
It is a set of separate repositories, though.
Cheers, Martin

Hello Martin,
I use the tei-p5-doc package for documentation (nicely accessible from emacs).
The schemas I now usually have with the files (since they don't always use the exact same revision), but I still use the supplied tei-p5-schema package as default.
For the stylesheets, I have everything in version control since I often find I want to make smallish changes.
How would it be different from a regular install of Oxygen, which already includes all the Stylesheets, customizations and P5?
The main difference for me would be that I don't have oXygen, and would not want to have to install it just to get nicely packaged TEI docs/stylesheets/schemas etc.
