[tei-council] http://purl.org/tei/fr/3519866 (@rend datatype)

[James Cummings]

Would it make sense for two nice reasonable people (like Martin 
and Piotr) on opposite sides of the discussion to look at it as 
an ad-hoc group?  (Possibly with someone who doesn't have an 
opinion one way or the other?)  They could then report back to 
the face2face?
