[tei-council] Fwd: MS SIG: Workshop on Genetic Criticism in Digital Framework, Paris 14-15 May

[Laurent Romary]

Dear Council and Board,
This is an important workshop on the working road of the TEI  
manuscript SIG. It would actually be good if some council or board  
member could contribute!
Cheers,
Laurent

> Dear all,
>
> the MS SIG is organising a workshop in genetic criticism in digital  
> framework to be held in Paris 14-15 May.
> As you probably know, this is a topic of great interest in the TEI  
> users' community and we -- the MS SIG -- are currently developing an  
> application profile to facilitate the creation of digital genetic  
> editions.  Such an application profile *may* evolve into a new  
> chapter of the TEI Guidelines, describing possible new elements and  
> giving directions and examples for the usage of existing elements in  
> a genetic context; or it may evolve in set of recommendations.
> The workshop will be a crucial part towards this model.
>
> The workshop will be held in Paris, 14-15 of May 2009 and will be  
> hosted at the ITEM (Institut des Textes & Manuscript Modernes).
> We are inviting scholars from Europe and North America, selected  
> because of their widely acknowledged excellence and expertise in  
> editions of authorial draft manuscripts and more specifically  
> genetic edition.
> The workshop aims to meet two main goals:
>
>   1. The collection of ideas and suggestions on how to formalise the  
> encoding of a genetic edition;
>   2. The discussion on a preliminary draft of the encoding model  
> prepared by the organising committee;
>
> The workshop will include two different groups of people: genetic  
> edition experts and TEI experts.
>
> The provisional deployment of the workshop includes two working days:
>
> 14th May - afternoon
> The convened experts are invited to share with the participants the  
> main lines of their research by presenting a genetic edition case  
> study, in order to collect a wide range of different cases, problems  
> and approaches.
>
> 15th May - morning.
> The organisers will present the draft encoding model for genetic  
> editions.
>
> 15th May - end of morning / beginning of afternoon
> General discussion on the presented proposal.
>
> The workshop is open to everybody up to about 40 people (we will  
> request for some form of registration). We will particularly welcome  
> member of the Council and of the Board.
>
> More details will follow and we will advertise it in different  
> lists, but -- having been promised of minimal funding to organise  
> the event from the ALLC -- we are now sending around the invitations.
>
> Any comment and suggestion is much appreciated!
>
> All the best,
