P4X revision: charactersets

[Laurent Romary]

Hi Lou,
I have printed the two things and will work on it before Saturday.
See you in London
Laurent

Lou Burnard a *crit :

> Although we have made substantial progress in other respects, there
> remain many minor details and one or two larger parts of the text of
> P4X which, in the opinion of the editors, are not yet ready for pub-
> lication. The current chapter 4 (Character Sets) is one such, on which
> the Council's opinion is particularly sought.
>
> The provisional working group chaired by Chris Wittern worked under
> excessive pressure and with exemplary speed to produce a preliminary draft
> last November; after some discussion with the group, we agreed to revise
> their draft over the Christmas break but regrettably have so far been
> unable to carry out this task, nor do we honestly expect to be able to
> make much progress before the Council meets. For that reason, the current
> P4X text has not changed since the version distributed in Pisa.
>
> It would therefore be much appreciated if Council members could make a
> point of reviewing the draft produced by the workgroup, (available at
> http://www.tei-c.org/P4X/Status/p2chrev.html) and the current state of
> the P4X chapter (available at http://www.tei-c.org/P4X/CH.pdf or
> http://www.tei-c.org/P4X/CH.html), so that we may have an informed
> discussion of this topic at the meeting. The editors' view is,
> regretfully, that neither of the current drafts is appropriate for
> publication in their present form, and that therefore we will have to
> delay publication of P4X until further work has been done on this chapter.
>
> We would like to continue the work already begun to that end, in
> consultation with Chris and the rest of the group, and hope that the
> Council will agree that this should be given high priority.
>
> Lou and Syd
