Re: [tei-council] Whither TEI Sessions

I’m okay with sharing 1) with Raff (if it’s okay with Raff), and it’ll help to have a sense of timing: How much time have we got? We can maybe each prepare a statement describing our experience of Council work—and I’m sure Raff’s is different from mine so far, so I think it’ll make for a good overview. Agreed that this is a good moment, perhaps after each of us has made a statement, to ask the audience what questions they have.

We have volunteers for 1 (Raff, Elisa) and 2 (Lou). Any takers for 3? I can do it, but then someone else will need to moderate. I sympathize with James's feeling that he's already doing to much, and I share it!

Raff and Elisa, are you comfortable sharing #1?

You'll have seen that Martin has a final draft of his white paper out. I think we'll need to address it one way of the other. If we're going to put out anything for comment to the wider TEI community, It should happen by the middle of next week, I'd say. Lou, if you wanted to make a case for the value of customization as a response to Martin's paper, I think that might be good. From my own perspective, customization wins, but maybe there are thousands of potential users out there who are put off by the complexity involved...

Raff and Elisa, it might be worth asking if there's anything people want to know about how Council works.

If I'm doing #3, I'll try to think of something... -- tei-council mailing list tei-council@lists.tei-c.org http://lists.lists.tei-c.org/mailman/listinfo/tei-council
