Re: Conversion of tei.2 files to TEI P5 (LOC American Memory DTD)

There is an entire category of xsl scripts in the wiki for handling
different aspects of this transition.
http://wiki.tei-c.org/index.php/Category:P4toP5

The one I personally used is at http://wiki.tei-c.org/index.php/P4toP5NZETC
and is a mix of strict migration issues, fixing local issues and fixing
things in the text that weren't checked for by the previous schema.

cheers
