In any case, we should tend towards a situation where:
- the council maintains the schema like any other official TEI  
customization
- we need to secure that when a change impacts on the AcessTEI program  
Apex is in the loop to be informed
We should not designed an adhoc maintenance system to preserve the  
simplicity of our processes.
