TEI SIG on Correspondence - Minutes Zadar, Nov 13, 2010

Participation: around 5 people

Peter gave a report on last year's activities

• Task force ‘Dalfy’ was established after the Ann Arbor Meeting: Markus Flatscher, Bert Van Raemdonck, Peter Stadler
• Goal: Mapping of DALF (P4) to TEI P5 as a basis for further work on a correspondence customization
• But: Momentum got lost …
• Further: Some discussion on TEI-L about "signed vs. salute"

A brief look on open questions

• Correspondence meta data: correspDesc?
• The content model of postscript (cf. the Collection of Postscript-Examples and the contributions to the ps-discussion.)
• The content model of opener/closer and their connection with salute, signed, dateline, byline etc.

Attempt to create a roadmap for 2011

• Peter suggested a second attempt for a grant to achieve the mapping of DALF to P5
• Discussion about possible fundings for such an attempt
• review of the last failed TEI grant proposal: it was criticized by the present panel members that no preliminary work was (visibly) carried out
• Susan suggested to first initiate a survey on the correspondence list
