[tei-council] TEI Workgroups

no one objects to the split imfinitive in the first sentence?

to my simple mind the difference between a work group and a sig is that the former has an explicit objective, described in a written charter, which it is supposed to do, and then disband.

a sig otoh exists as long as it wants tp go on finding things to talk about

Kevin and all,

I noticed a couple of what I took to be typos, one inherited from the existing page and one in the new prose:

1) "Workgroups are not the only mechanism for proposing extensions of modifications to the Guidelines" should read "Workgroups are not the only mechanism for proposing extensions or modifications to the Guidelines"

2) "The following workgroups are currently under active under the aegis . . . " should read "The following workgroups are currently active under the aegis . . ."

The attached file incorporates these changes, under the questionable assumption that I've interpreted aright.

Best regards,
Brett

In Chicago, Elena incidentally gave the background on these
"workgroups", so attached is a proposed revision to

<http://www.tei-c.org/Activities/Workgroups/index.xml>http://www.tei-c.org/Activities/Workgroups/index.xml

As you'll see, I have:

a) added the feature structures workgroup (which was missing from the
page but is discoverable from the navigation menu at left)

b) Moved the two inactive workgroups to the "no longer active" section.

c) Added some context on workgroups vs. SIGs (thanks, Elena!)

d) Added the two active workgroups that I know of.

David Sewell: if no objections are raised by next weekend, please put up
this new version.

Thanks
