			Agenda

			'''Short presentation “Ad-hoc workflows for tabular data capture and transformation using XSLT“ by Julian Jarosch'''
			* first version: https://gitlab.rlp.net/sahara/foucauld/correspondance-foucauld-basset/-/tree/main/src?ref_type=heads
			* current version: https://gitlab.rlp.net/tolkien/letters-metadata/-/tree/main/src?ref_type=heads
			* discussion of: The print edition of Tolkien’s correspondence contains incomplete/shortened transcriptions. This fact is stated by the editors. This is possibly interesting for CMIF v2 or v3. Discussion how often people encounter this.

			'''Report from Conference “Letters re-read” (“Briefe neu gelesen”) at Villa Vigoni, Italy'''
			* https://www.villavigoni.eu/de/event/briefe-neu-gelesen/
			* Working Group led by Andrea Rapp and Anna Fatori
			* Topic: Making marginalized issues and marginalia visible in letters, e.g., everyday life in general, care work, household chores, clothing
			* Jointly created 3 vocabularies; work not yet completed:
			** Main area: Topics (care work, travel, clothing, emotions, etc.)
			** Roles: who writes to whom (teacher to student, subject to king, etc.), e.g., <persName role=””>
			** Typology (love letters, etc.): letter genres adapted from and expanded upon in Buber’s correspondence, based on the “genres” in Handbuch Brief;
			Vocabulary intended to be used in CMIF in the future and searchable via correspSearch

			'''Further developments in CMIF / correspSearch'''
			* CMIF v2.0-Dokumentation in preparation: https://github.com/TEI-Correspondence-SIG/CMIF/blob/dev/doc/documentation-en.md#cmif-v2-additional-information-on-the-letter-and-its-content
			* correspSearch now aggregates meta data from ca. 425.000 letter (versions), 42.000 letters with full texts
			* [https://correspsearch.net/en/cmif-check.html CMIF Check] improved

			'''objectType values in CMIF?'''
			* [https://lists.psu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A2=TEI-CORRESP-SIG;eedf6c33.2607 Thomas Kollatz proposes] to include <objectType> values in CMIF v2
			* perhaps as 'cmif:hasObjectType'?
			* His list of terms/typology needs to be reviewed again; we need to get more information from Thomas Kollatz → take another look at it at the next meeting
			* Question regarding the inclusion of abridged/unabridged letter texts: how relevant is this for the community?
