[tei-council] TEI Conformance

[Christian Wittern]

As it happens, I am entirely with Syd here.  It seems to ask enough if
we simply require that the three letters TEI (any case) appear
anywhere in the namespace URI in a way that sets them off (that is to
say not part of a word or other expression).

Which should not stop as from doing this *now*.
