TEI Tite
TEI Tite: Issues Under Consideration
Sorry my post is somewhat belated, given the survey has already gone out. But I wanted to raise one issue with tite--not with the scheme per se, but with it possible customization.
My understanding is that this is a tool which can be used to approach a vendor to obtain a discount for TEI members.
I also understand that as it stands now, this would not be customizable. My question is: would the discount from vendors be achievable mainly by virtue of the simplified set-up of markup, or by virtue of the (potential) size of the group? I assume both achieve some savings. However, when I look at work we might want to submit to such a service, we would want customization in tagging for any of those--but with significant overlap with TEI lite. If we get (theoretically) 50% of potential savings by virtue of the group, and 50% by virtue of using a single scheme, couldn't we still achieve 80% savings by allowing for some customization?
