Dear all, during some of our last meetings I mentioned that we (at Paderborn University) are in the lucky position to have a skilled developer to work on the OxGarage. Our main focus is to add music (notation) specific conversion capabilities (for a „MEIGarage") but to keep a common code base with the TEI version and to update and enhance it in passing. Last week we had a first meeting between Paderborn and the TEI, namely Hugh Cayless and James Cummings, to discuss our plans. These are still quite technical (i.e. refactoring and restructuring the code base) but do need some organisational backing. In particular, we plan to split the OxGarage repo [1] into separate repos for every module (by keeping the appropriate Git version history for every module). For this, I want to add Anne as a collaborator to our TEIC GitHub organisation and she will add a few repos to our GitHub space. NB: At present, this will not affect our current OxGarage repo, nor the Docker images, nor the OxGarage deployments. You won’t notice anything but an increase of git repos at our TEIC Github :) We are still at a very early stage but will strive to engage with the (developers) community to share the plans and spread the knowledge more widely. This might involve a report to TEI Council during our next virtual f2f?! Hope this report was not too lengthy nor too short? If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to approach Anne (or me) directly. If I do not hear a loud „nay“ until next week, I will take this as approval and will perform the mentioned actions in our GitHub space :) Cheers Peter [1] https://github.com/TEIC/oxgarage
This is great news. Just out of courtesy at least are you keeping the original polish developers in the loop? James should have contacts.

Hi Lou, thanks for the feedback! This was exactly why we wanted to have James’ input. If I heard him right, they moved on and don’t feel affiliated with the OxGarage anymore?! But of course we will keep the repo’s history and all the names in the pom files! Best Peter

Hi all,
This is indeed my recollection -- that the Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Centre had moved on to doing different kinds of things and did not have further resources for supporting or developing the ENRICH-EGE (the original name) that we'd collaborated with them on for the ENRICH project. This is based on a conversation Sebastian and I had with them about possibly getting involved in a funding bid that would have had some resource for improving the software.
Those originally involved were:
Tomasz Parkola tparkola@man.poznan.pl
Mariusz Stanislawczyk mariuszs@man.poznan.pl
Marcin Werla mwerla@man.poznan.pl
If you thought we should double check (with the top two doing the most work in project management and development respectively). I'm not even sure if they are still at PSNC. The software outputs from the original project are all GPL licensed.
Many thanks,
James
