		+	The TEI is an important part of many DH activities, and discipline- or usage-specific customizations like simplePrint and Epidoc are making it more so, primarily because they have their own communities, documentation and tool chains. As it is becoming a greater part of more DH activities, I would like to explore how TEI could be recognized and handled by other popular DH tools and integrated into repositories and academic infrastructures.
		+
		+	I continue to feel that it is important to balance the more responsive corrections and additions that are a large part of the TEI Council's responsibility with more outreach, and strategic planning for future directions and with the larger additions and modifications that come from SIGs or other work groups. I am eager to encourage this kind of participation, for example by participating in a IIIF work group. In addition, it remains important to think through the problem of multilingual or international versions of the guidelines and element specifications. Although the technical aspect of incorporating and updating translations is complex, it could be solved. It is more difficult but also productive to figure out where translation is needed most, and how to manage it so that users are comfortable in their own language, but can also refer to the English base text.
		+
		+	'''Biography'''
		+
		+	I am currently the Senior Digital Humanities Librarian in the Brown University Library, and at the Center for Digital Scholarship, a library department which works on digital projects with members of the Brown community, participates in activities to increase the knowledge and adoption of digital methods and develops infrastructure to support these goals. I manage and participate in a variety of projects, but my main expertise lies in working with textual materials - identifying appropriate metadata structures, encoding text and transforming it into appropriate output formats using TEI and other data structures. My academic background is in Classics, in which I almost completed a dissertation on Latin Literature.
		+
		+	I have been involved with text encoding from the pre-historic days of SGML and with the TEI since its inception, as a member of several of the original working groups. My involvement with text encoding and the TEI is ongoing. I am currently providing technical support to two corpora of ancient inscriptions - US Epigraphy and Inscriptions of Israel/Palestine both of which use the Epidoc customization of TEI for encoding inscriptions and other inscribed ancient texts and other projects which incorporate TEI markup. I've also been active in the development and maintenance of the Epidoc schema and Guidelines and co-taught several Epidoc workshops. In addition to projects which rely on or incorporate TEI, I work on on a variety of other DH projects, many of which rely on structured data - so I am often engaged in figuring out how to use the right model in the right place. In some cases, this amounts to an unconventional use of TEI - for example encoding detailed metadata, but only partially capturing the body of a text. I am increasingly working on DH projects that require encoding text in non-Roman languages such as Hebrew or Arabic.
		+
		+	I have served two terms on TEI council (2013-2014, 2016-2017). During that time, I learned to navigate the basic mechanisms used to maintain and improve the TEI. I was responsible for organizing the first TEI hackathon which took place at DH2014 in Lausanne. It was was well attended and the participants as well as the organizers learned a great deal about coding approaches to TEI and applications for TEI data and tools. The TEI subsequently organized a second hackathon at DH2015. I am also active in the TEI in Libraries SIG, where we are completing a revision of the Best Practices for TEI in Libraries Schema and Guidelines.

 '''Statement of purpose'''
-I have made some attempts in the past to encode historical Japanese manuscripts with TEI, and through those experiences I have found there is a number of incompatibilities between the current TEI Guidelines and the writing systems in East-Asia, especially of Japan. I would like to contribute to the “globalization” of TEI and its community by fixing those problems.	"Yuta Hashimoto is an Assistant Professor at National Museum of Japanese History. He holds M.A. in History of Science and is going to gain a PhD in Digital Humanities from Kyoto University by 2018.  He has experience as a programmer for three years in the private sector.

 '''Biography'''
 He has engaged in several development projects for supporting research and education in Japanese studies. One of his recent works is KuLA ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=yuta.hashimoto.kula), a mobile learning app for reading classical calligraphic renderings of Japanese characters (kuzushiji), which has been downloaded 80,000 times. He is also the founder of Minnna de Honkoku (https://honkoku.org/), a crowdsourced transcription platform for pre-modern Japanese materials. The platform was launched in January 2017, and since then 4,000 folios have been transcribed by 3,000 registered users.

I have spent many a long hour using TEI to transcribe journals, letters, field diaries, manuscripts and notes for Livingstone Online, assembling and generating metadata for images and digital surrogates. I have taught digital editing based on XML-TEI in multiple countries and am actively involved in international digital outreach, giving workshops on project management and on using XML-TEI in digital cultural creation.

 My research focuses on manuscripts of 19th century European exploration in Africa and India. This research is grounded in using XML-TEI as its bedrock from which to develop 19th century cultural digital content and its subsequent curation; including imaging, data management, transcription, XML-TEI textual mark-up, CSS and XSLT.

 Kathryn Tomasek, Professor of History at Wheaton College, has been exploring models for transcription and markup of historical accounting records since 2009. Two previous awards have supported her methodological investigations: a Level 1 Start-Up Grant from the Office of Digital Humanities at the National Endowment for the Humanities for Encoding Historical Financial Records (2011) and a Bilateral Digital Humanities award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the German Research Foundation for MEDEA with the University of Regensburg and the University of Graz (2015). She is a member of the Board of Directors of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) and has participated in numerous activities related to the promotion of digital technologies in liberal education and scholarly communication. She has served on several National Institute for Technology and Liberal Education (NITLE) advisory boards, and she participated in a Scholarly Communication Institute focused on history in 2005. She also has served on program committees for the annual meetings and conferences of the TEI, the Japanese Association for Digital Humanities, and the American Historical Association. Her work has been published in the Journal of the TEI and in the Journal of Digital Humanities as well in the proceedings of annual meetings of the TEI and DH2010, DH2011, DH2013, DH2014, and DH2016. Tomasek’s ontology based on account book transaction records developed in collaboration with co-author Syd Bauman has been translated into Japanese.
