[tei-council] is TEI Lite defined by inclusion or exception?

[Kevin Hawkins]

I agree that Lite should be expressed by what is *in* in it, not by what 
it excludes.  And I agree with Lou and Laurent on reviewing additions 
that might have accidentally been included since it was last 
intentionally revised.

I think we need to appoint someone to comb through it looking for any 
changes and consider those on a SF ticket (to get community input) 
rather than having an open-ended unstructured discussion in Chicago.  I 
think community input here is especially important, as with removing 
elements from Tite, because people have adopted Lite for projects "as 
is" and might expect an element or two to remain in it.
