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 (along with the prose linked from the "about" page). | 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), when KH suggested they simply begin using http://www.tei-c.org/release/xml/tei/custom/schema/dtd/tei_tite.dtd , which by then he felt should have been functionality identical to what they were already using. But on 2013-12-09, KH learned that Ben had left Apex and that Ravi Thota is now the project manager for AccessTEI.
KH emailed Greg again on 2014-10-04. Greg responded, referring to Ravi. Kevin asked Ravi to link to their DTD (again) on 2014-12-03. |

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. |
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. |

Hugh, bless him, took care of it. |

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. |
Issue 457 (formerly feature request 457): make explicit difference between tagUsage and ODD documentation | during November 2013 Council meeting: see action items | Discussion happening on ticket. |
