I'm confused. I am trying to remove macro.anyXML from P5 per its deprecation message. You might think this would be trivial. Remove the one reference to it from Source/Guidelines/en/ST-Infrastructure.xml,[1] and `git mv Source/Specs/macro.anyXML.xml Source/Defunct/`. Presto. No such luck. I've been at this for hours, now, and I'm getting quite close. The problem I'm running into now is that (in my local directory) <egXML> is now defined by <anyElement>, not by macro.anyXML, as the latter does not exist. But when used in a content model, <anyElement> (for reasons I cannot explain and I doubt anyone can) does not permit elements from the TEI namespace or the teix:egXML element. In P5 itself, it makes sense to disallow elements from the TEI namespace in teix:egXML. But I don't think it makes sense to disallow teix:egXML from being used inside teix:egXML itself. In fact, *we use a teix:egXML inside a teix:egXML twice in P5*, both in the tagdoc for <egXML>. So I thought I would try removing the restriction for P5 itself that <anyElement> not allow teix:egXML. The tagdoc for <anyElement> says Default elements and namespaces to be excluded are set on the <att>defaultExceptions</att> attribute of the <gi>schemaSpec</gi>. <att>except</att> may be used when the exceptions need to be locally specified. So, I went off looking for the <schemaSpec defaultExceptions="teix:egXML http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0"> for P5. To my surprise, I could not find *any* tei:schemaSpec that seems to be the definition of our schema.[2] Anyone know where the <schemaSpec> generated by the source in Source/ is? I'm guessing there isn't one, and that's why you *always* need to use a customization file (if only tei_all), because it is what has the <schemaSpec>. But then, where are the default exclusions for @except of <anyElement> declared? I tried changing the <anyElement> in the <content> declaration of <egXML> to just except="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0", in the hopes that that would override (rather than add to) the default. Didn't work. So I went back to re-defining teix:egXML in p5odds.odd. But I think that has always been a mistake, and hope we can find some other fix. Committed at b1e0267. Hope Mr. Jenkins is happy. Notes ----- [1] Like many other macros, it is part of ST via an XInclude, so you just have to delete the one line.
