Well, in fact I wrote a lengthy report and circulated it to Council 
shortly after the meeting (it's still online at 
http://www.tei-c.org/Activities/Council/Working/tcw25.xml
but it did not seem to have provoked much discussion, or indeed been 
noticed. I can also report  a conversation with Thomas Schmidt at a 
conference in Bordeaux last
week, where he re-expressed the desire to progress the ideas in his jTEI 
paper, by formulating some detailed tutorial material, with an 
accompanying ODD, for evaluation by a group of european experts.

So I think this is progressing along the lines vaguely suggested in the 
ticket referred to.
