That's a good idea for things that might conceivably still be useful, but I think it's ok to actually delete things too. They still exist in the repo's history. Hugh Sent from my phone.

The space is cheap, of course, but it does seem a bit confusing/unnecessary to make everyone checking out a copy of the TEI SF repo download all this old crud as well.
Can anyone come up with a good reason not to zap also the directory TEIOO-Deprecated ? This is no longer supported, and its function has been superceded by the Stylesheets directory anyway.
There are also the following, which I think may now be of purely archival/historical interest :
- genetic (contains the record of the work of the genetic working group now incorporated into P5 - Extensions (contains some sample ODDs for olde projectes - I18N (special case of the above, since it contains work done using ODD but not using TEI
And two others whose status/usefulness is unknown to me
- TEIC (contains stuff related to the website newsfeed - TEICSS (contains sample CSS file and a testfile; last updated 2007
Should we maybe create a separate Archival space for all this?

Which I have now done.
