Review of Actions (See minutes at Minutes from F2F)

JC reviews actions

LB gave an update on TEI-ODDS and Pure ODD development

CorrespDesc

PWS provided an update on correspDesc ticket

Specification of ODD proposal updated http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/TEI-Correspondence-SIG/correspDesc/blob/master/doc/proposal.htmlhttps://github.com/TEI-Correspondence-SIG/correspDesc based on feedback from last Council meeting. Decided not to allow nesting. Example use-cases have been collected and are available on GitHub https://github.com/TEI-Correspondence-SIG/correspDesc/tree/master/examples. Please all take a look at the examples and the specification and make sure they’re in line with what we discussed at Duke. <correspDesc> may be added to att.typed and <correspAction> to att.sortable. We agree with this. The chapter prose needs to be added to the Header chapter; this should probably be drafted by someone else, so that we can see if the result matches the intentions of the proposers. There is some text in the current ODD proposal, but it needs to be reworked. LB is willing to try this in the new year.

Action: LB to draft prose for correspDesc addtions to header chapter and report back to Council

Standoff

PWS provided an update on standoff proposal ticket

Nothing has happened recently; PWS tried to push the group to move forward, and has arranged a conference call with Laurent Romary, who has some examples.

LaurentR has created a GitHub project. It’s just a stub right now.

This is very distinct from the <xenoData> proposal, and should not be confused with it.

SB points out there has been some traffic on the Council list about it, which we should all read. MH comments this was very confusing.

PWS to report back on Standoff progress

redefining msPart

SG / PWS provided an update on redefining msPart (SG / PWS)

SG and PWS have created a document, checked the prose of the Guidelines, and have proposed some changes. A link to the proposal will be added to the ticket https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bpBPughQp5sOoB13iTMHMeRd88Mjv12_eGZiQXY-na8/edit#

SG has recently posted a ticket which arises out of this: https://sourceforge.net/p/tei/feature-requests/538/This proposes fixing a bad example of a ‘composite’ MS.

Action: All to read the msPart proposal and discuss them on the mailing list.

Action on SG to badger everyone to do read msPart proposal.

Global @resp

MH provided an update on global @resp; detailed implementation plan is on the wiki for everyone to check through before it’s done (MH). Action on Council to discuss it on the mailing list before Tuesday; then MH will go ahead with implementation. Minor bugs or typos can just be reported directly to MH. DONE 2014-12-10.

Next Release

Date of next release; release technician. <correspDesc> and global resp should be triggers for this. SR thinks the former will take quite a while. Action on PWS to fix a date by which the <correspDesc> proposal should be implemented and report to the Council list. Should be one of the new members, so we have new eyes on the documentation. SR asks about oxygen-tei framework building. MH will be looking at as part of the JTEI work. Will take at least as long as the addition of correspDesc. SB doesn’t think this should be release-blocking, but we must not lose track of it. Action on MH to report to Council within a month or so about oxygen-tei framework building and next release

Mentoring New Council Members
