User:Kshawkin/My Council obligations

Below is a description of things that were "on my plate" when I finished my term on the Technical Council at the end of 2013 which I hope to find time to finish. I will update this page as I make progress on them or am aware that others do so.

What	When assigned	Status
Get Apex to provide the DTD they're using for AccessTEI on the AccessTEI website.	during February 2012 teleconference (?)	KH emailed Greg Suprock on 2012-03-04. Greg replied on 2012-03-05 saying he agreed with the idea and would do it. Kevin pinged again on 2012-04-07 (response on 2012-04-17, again confirming Apex would do it) and on 2013-07-18 (response on 2013-07-18, referring to Ben Mills). But on 2013-12-09, KH learned that Ben had left Apex and that Ravi Thota is now the project manager for AccessTEI.
Bug 401 (formerly bug 3520704): Add examples to definitions of attributes where missing	First assigned to all of Council on 2012-04-23; list regenerated on 2012-12-21
Create a ticket that ref-data.pattern.html should have a reference to W3C for each of the two members moved to here.	during April 2012 Council meeting but not recorded in minutes or action items.	Can't figure out what my notes actually mean. Asked for help on tei-council on 2012-06-28.
Make sure a new-style inclusion TEI Tite ODD is up to date, regenerate schemas and update prose to match. The result should be packaged and archived as a stable and unchanging resource.	during April 2012 Council meeting: see action items	The Technical Council decided in September 2012 to instead maintain Tite, as it has long done for TEI Lite. Still, that leaves changing to new-style inclusion ODD, regenerating schemas and updating prose to match. KH first wants to check that TEI-C's Tite matches any changes made by Apex to their version without informing us (see email from KH to tei-council on 2012-06-28 and following messages in that thread). At some point he also wants to implement all postponed Tite tickets and report back to Council on progress.
Participate in div-liminal working group to resolve https://sourceforge.net/p/tei/bugs/320/ and other tickets. We were going to have a community-driven encoding exercise.	during April 2012 Council meeting: see action items	At November 2013 Council meeting we decided to resolve https://sourceforge.net/p/tei/bugs/320/ and perhaps other tickets relating to div-liminal elements. KH emailed tei-council on 2013-12-29 to ask whether we abandoning our community-driven encoding exercise. Discussion is pointing toward postponing this till P6. (If so, we should add it to our list.)
Create tickets for incorporating useful things from the Best Practices into P5	during April 2012 Council meeting: see action items	Instead of doing this all myself, KH emailed TEI-L on 2013-04-06 to ask people to step up and contribute. No one has yet.
Bug 442 (formerly bug 3570106: Update ODD documentation on www.tei-c.org and in Guidelines	during September 2012 Council meeting: see action items	Waiting on MH to revise the documentation on TEI website before incorporating into the Guidelines
proof chapter 4 of the Guidelines by 2013-01-15	by JC on tei-council on 2012-12-26
consistency in "the Guidelines" vs. "these Guidelines"	during April 2013 Council meeting (see action items) and again during November 2013 Council meeting (see action items)
use of modal verbs in Guidelines	during April 2013 Council meeting (see action items) but with new plan (to be carried out with RW) during November 2013 Council meeting (see action items)	LB has commented out otiose paragraph. KH has responded on the ticket asking whether we will bother documenting this in the Guidelines. Still need to go through usages in the Guidelines.
remove all examples of deprecated practices from the Guidelines: see validator log errors and summaries of past decisions for context	See ["build failure" thread on tei-council beginning 2013-12-13]: original thread and derived thread.	KH volunteered to work on this, but then further discussion on tei-council questioned whether we really should remove all of these examples.
make explicit difference between tagUsage and ODD documentation	during November 2013 Council meeting: see action items	Discussion happening on ticket.
draft a proposal for a generic policy on integration of external standards into the TEI	during November 2013 Council meeting: see action items	drafted a generic policy and circulated to LB and SB on 2013-12-26. Created https://sourceforge.net/p/tei/feature-requests/507/ so we don't forget.
