[tei-council] Attributes without examples

Besides struggling to find times for the other things I've agreed to do, 
my main problem is that I have no corpus of encoded literature to 
consult to find real examples.  So I would be creating fake ones.  While 
that's okay for some attributes, for many it's painfully obvious if it's 
faked.

Since James asked for other suggestions, what if we put out a call to 
the wider community for examples?  We could create a column in the wiki 
for the examples, filling in <pre> or <code> or whatever tag is needed 
so that people don't need to escape angle brackets before pasting.  And 
then people can drop in some and we can choose the best to insert into 
SourceForge
