just to be clear, all the TEI Guidelines are one (ODD) doc, and the usage
of tags like <gi> is uniform across running prose and tech doc. The chapter
parts of the of the gidlines do require you to grok eg specDesc, specList,
egXML, tag, att and friends. But  the discipline is not the same as writing *Spec,
I agree
