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

[Lou Burnard]

Indeed yes -- and Elena is, I believe, a member of the Council.

Paolo is also organising a similar (open) workshop on genetic criticism 
here in Oxford next week, which I am planning to attend. I'd also be 
happy to attend the ITEM workshop, but as it appears to be by invitation 
only, I will have to wait for my invitation! The dates are OK for me at 
the moment.

>> The workshop will include two different groups of people: genetic

>> 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

>> 15th May - morning.
>> The organisers will present the draft encoding model for genetic

>>
>> 15th May - end of morning / beginning of afternoon
>> General discussion on the presented proposal.
