| − | The conformance levels are as follows:
| |
| − | | |
| − | # The document conforms to the tei_all schema, or any valid subset of that (ie with fewer elements, tighter datatyping etc).
| |
| − | ## The definition of elements may be suppressed, so deleting the associated elements from the modified schema.
| |
| − | ## The name (generic identifier) associated with an element may be changed, while preserving the semantics of the element. Note, however, that the new name may not clash with the default name of any element defined in these Guidelines.
| |
| − | ## An <equiv> element in the ODD should be used to specify the TEI name for such renamed elements.
| |
| − | ## Those parts of the content model of an element which are specified by classes may be extended by adding members to the classes.
| |
| − | ## Further attributes, together with their names and types, may be specified for an individual element and existing attributes for an individual element may be renamed. Note that the new names may not clash with names of existing attributes for the element.
| |
| − | ## Further attributes, together with their names and types, may be specified for the elements in a particular class and those inheriting characteristics from that class.
| |
| − | ## Any derivation from the tei_all schema must be expressed in an accompanying ODD specification
| |
| − | # The document conforms a schema which adds new elements to the TEI but provides an ODD specification which uses the <equiv> mechanism which explains how to map these to standard TEI (this allows for syntactic sugar, or translated names)
| |
| − | # the document conforms to a schema which extends the TEI element set by manipulation of the TEI class system
| |
| − | # the document conforms to a schema which is based on the TEI but has changed the content model for elements so that normal TEI documents would no longer conform
| |
| − | # the document uses the TEI elements in the TEI namespace, but embeds them within another schema
| |
| − | | |
| − | In addition to the conformance level, a document will claim AACR
| |
| − | compatibility if the elements <TEI> or <teiCorpus>, <teiHeader> and
