which is not quite the same thing as having ENRICH on SF next to TEI.
Having a nice new catalogue on the TEI web pages would be very sensible

not that we know of.

to be honest, the risk is small. everything is in a version control system,
and I (at least) get an email telling me of every commit, so weirdnesses
get picked up pretty quickly. If all else failed, I (or some other
admin)  would get back the state of last known saneness and restore over the top.
