[tei-council] Adopt a feature! Outstanding work items for Council consideration

[Laurent Romary]

Dear all,

Here's a list of about a dozen short items which need some further  
thought
and discussion before they can be implemented (or not) as updates to
the Guidelines.

If we were having a FTF meeting, I'd suggest breakout groups to deal
with them, but since I don't see any such meeting in the near future,
instead I propose a CALL FOR NUNCLES. A NUNCLE takes responsibility for
looking at an item, and in consultation with his or her FELLOW NUNCLE
then makes a specific recommendation for change (or not) which the rest
of the council can vote on.

There are 12 Council members, so if each volunteers to NUNCLE twice,
it should be possible easily to fill each of the nine slots below with
at least two nuncles.


1. further attributes for imprecise numerical values

3060909: add attribute for non-numeric characterisation of precision
