Do we need a 2.8.1 to be done fairly quickly for this? This really is my fault, but I must admit I had no idea what @predeclare was about; I was assuming the regular tests would pick up anything problematic, and I had no trouble working with @rend and @rendition in my projects for several months before release. I don't use DTDs, of course.

I have committed the appropriate change to fix it. This means that any ODD which redefines @rend, @rendition etc is going to fail when it comes to making a DTD. You may now formally curse the day DTDs were invented. I might note that a few existing ODD users are going to be mighty confused when they find their code to change @rend globally simply fails to work these days. In retrospect, it would have been good to highlight this in the release notes. --- Sent from sourceforge.net because you indicated interest in <https://sourceforge.net/p/tei/bugs/749/> To unsubscribe from further messages, please visit <https://sourceforge.net/auth/subscriptions/>
