Hi Joe,

Walking back to my hotel at the TEI Council meeting in Prague.  There is a p4top5 stylesheet at
https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/blob/dev/profiles/default/p4/from.xsl

It isn't perfect especially where ppl have customised and the p5 it produces might be slightly out of date, but that is where is start if someone hasn't converted it already.

Hi everyone,

Has anyone converted tei.2 files (ideally, those from the Library of Congress's American Memory project, DTD developed circa 1997[1]) to TEI P5?  I'm looking at a batch of ~1,700 files with transcripts of oral history interviews [2], and while I could rig up a script to perform a basic conversion, I thought I'd ask if there was any previous work in this area.

Thanks,
Joe
