<p>copied minutes from https://t.co/nP0OdBb0 to the wiki and *slightly* amended them</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== SIG Correspondence meeting 2012 minutes ==<br /> <br /> '''Attendees''': Syd Baumann, Gary Chafee, Julia Flanders, Albertina Hughey, Mary MacNeil, Daniel Röwenstrunk, David Sewell, Peter Stadler, Jennifer Stertzer, Werner Wegstein<br /> <br /> === Report on last year's activities ===<br /> <br /> * Two people added their encoding practices to [[SIG:Correspondence/EncodingComparisons]] for a ''comparison between several customized or non-customized TEI versions for correspondence'' (= last year's short term goal)<br /> * Ron posted his DALF P5 (preliminary) proposal<br /> <br /> <br /> === Request for a correspondence module and a wrapper element for correspondence meta data ===<br /> <br /> Details about proposal were given in advance at: [[SIG:Correspondence/RequestForModule]]<br /> <br /> * There is agreement about a correspondence module with the name “correspondence”<br /> * There is agreement to put the correspondence metadata in the &lt;sourceDesc&gt;; if there is a wrapper, it should probably be called &lt;&gt;, but that detail is less important<br /> * Peter shows the group the DALF and WeGA systems<br /> <br /> <br /> ==== Decisions ====<br /> <br /> * letter metadata unit &lt;&gt; should be repeatable, member of att.declarable, and member of model.bibl (or whatever &lt;msDesc&gt; is a member of)<br /> * Metadata should be organized (inside the wrapper) as a set of special-purpose elements (e.g., &lt;sent&gt; or &lt;sender&gt; and &lt;received&gt; or &lt;addressee&gt;), with a general-purpose element (e.g., &lt;correspItem&gt;) for those cases we can’t predict (e.g., transmission, censoring, translation -- although we just predicted those :-). These elements would likely all have the same content model. Also need to have model.pLike or model.noteLike (or both) for prose explanations.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==== Further work during the meeting ====<br /> <br /> * Syd starts writing a rough ODD draft for the above decisions<br /> * We got stuck about a simple list of events (sending, receiving etc.) vs. a more distinguished separation between the creation events and the reception events<br /> * got stuck again by trying to turn the agents into events and back again<br /> * Final decision is to go with an actor based approach as done by DALF and WeGA and add some generic element to be able to take care of additional requirements<br /> * The result of our ODD efforts are uploaded as a “second draft” on [[SIG:Correspondence/ODD_work]]<br /> <br /> <br /> === AOB ===<br /> <br /> nothing</div>
