Support for TEI

Language(s)

Documentation

Customizing the TEI with Roma (besides this, just see the Debian packaging)

To install, run "make install" from the sources.

As Sebastian wrote on TEI-L on 2009-12-21, "Always remember when considering Roma and friends that the variation is in the XSL stylesheets which it uses. So 99% of error reports and bug fixes are to do with the behaviour of odd2odd.xsl and odd2relax.xsl (etc). The XSL package changes much more frequently than Roma."

Tech support

Report problems either at the TEI-L list or in the SourceForge bug tracker.

Sebastian wrote to TEI-L on 2009-12-21, "I expect to do some fixes next year to allow the ODD processing to be carried out by web services, based on the EGE (http://dl.psnc.pl/software/EGE/). When that is working, my idea is to redo Roma to use the web services to do all its backoffice work, and so not need any local software at all."
