This release contains only a few new features and significant changes:
- A new element called <surplus> has been added to the Transcription module, originally proposed by SF ticket 2242434
- Content models of <char> and <glyph> were changed to require <figure> rather than any model./graphicLike element (2812295)
- An attribute @role is now provided by the att.naming class making it possible to distinguish the functions of the people assopciated with particular name in a source without the trouble of defining <person> elements for them (1954920)
- Following changes made to permit better documentation of constraints within an ODD, the element <valList> was changed from being a possible child of <content> to being a sibling of it.
Various minor clarifications and corrections were made to the wording of the Guidelines in response to Sourceforge tickets (e.g. 2881723, 2883950, 2813423 2877747, 2761884, 2863337, 2750513, 2820540, 2820541)
The work of the AFNOR group providing and correcting French translations and examples continued, with a large number of changes made in July, September, and November.
