Dear all, At the moment we are converting some 8000 corpora (runes, old, mid and new frisian, dialects) at the fryske akademy to TEI. By adopting an international standard we hope to boost doing research on top of these data. Related to this I am interested in experiences with: 1) doing research on TEI material 2) disclosure and publication (i.g. web) of TEI material Experiments with oxGarage http://www.tei-c.org/oxgarage/ shows minimal, disappointing results. I did not yet try https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets, perhaps this offers better results. I wonder how much effort / development (i.a. xslt, xquery) the two aspects (publicaton and doing research) will take. TEI offers flexibility and freedom (i.g. <span type="lemma" target="w1 w2"> instead of <lemma target="w1 w2">) that complicates tool development. How big of a problem is this?
