SIG Text and Graphics 2013 meeting

at TEI Members' Meeting in Rome, Italy, October 2-5, 2013

when: Thursday 3 October, 14.30

where: Room 117

Agenda / Minutes

 * introductions - areas of interest mentioned:
 * graphic design (leaflets) - how to edit?
 * (newspaper) websites - how to archive, including pictorial content?
 * critical editions, particularly with regard to images - how to link different readings to images?
 * TEI Boilerplate facsimile demo
 * John Walsh demonstrated TEI Boilerplate; see http://teiboilerplate.org/ and also https://github.com/GrantLS/TEI-Boilerplate.
 * 'A Guide to Images in TEI'
 * Martin de la Iglesia explained difference between the comprehensive 'Guide' and a more concise proposed Images Cheatsheet; meeting participants expressed interest in seeing both resources developed.
 * open discussion of the facsimile chapter/elements
 * "tokenization in images": if one wants to link text tokens to the corresponding areas in the facsimile, how can one avoid drawing boxes manually?
 * The @points attribute seems to be missing from the element, although it would make sense to have it there. A feature request will be considered.
