If you click on File / New in Oxygen, and look at the TEI P5 options, you'll see a bunch of templates called: Minimal Minimal with Internationalization Minimal with Math and so on. I believe that having TEI Simple alongside TEI Minimal (not to mention TEI Lite and TEI Tite as well) is going to be mighty confusing. I suggest that before we integrate Simple into this ecosystem we might want to reconsider whether we want these Minimal schemas or not. Cheers, Martin
It was a lot more confusing when the Oxygen ones were also called "TEI Simple" ! But I think "minimal" is actually quite useful -- and it's a less confusing name than "tei bare". On 31/08/15 17:54, Martin Holmes wrote:

If everybody is OK with all these options side by side, then I'll shut up. It did confuse me a lot before the change to Minimal. I can imagine a lot of questions from people asking "if I want a basic TEI file to get me started, which of these many options should I choose?"
