[tei-council] Project Gutenberg

[Piotr Bański]

Regarding the need to secure the choice of TEI as the format of choice
in (among others) digitization of literary works, should we not pay
special attention to developments such as PGTEI? Project Gutenberg is a
very serious and popular initiative, and providing support to it will
benefit both sides.

I can't recall PG being mentioned at TEI-MMs or on TEI-L (may have
missed something obvious though). PGTEI appears to be a derived format
instead of being an ODD customization -- perhaps all is not lost and we
can provide support for PG, in return enlarging the community coverage,
with all the related benefits.
