Dear TEI-L,
TEI P5 2.0.2 (Codename: Groundhog Day) has been released and is
live on the TEI-C website and SourceForge.
The 2.0.2 release of TEI P5 is a minor release fixing a number of
small issues, mostly typographical errors and formatting
problems, discovered in the 2.0.1 release. The 2.0.1 release
itself consisted of only minor tweaks to the 2.0.0 release. The
only significant change in 2.0.2 was that the <geo> element now
claims membership of the att.declaring class.
However, those interested in open and distributed nature of the
work of the TEI may be pleased to know that this release had a
'release technician' that was not affiliated with Oxford in any
manner. (I believe this may be the first time this has happened
with TEI P5 and is a good development for a mature open source
project.)
In this case after the Technical Council had finished its work
proofreading, Martin Holmes from University of Victoria followed
through the steps at
http://www.tei-c.org/Activities/Council/Working/tcw20.xml#release-steps
to make the release. This threw up a number of corrections that
will be made to this document to clarify the process for the
future. Thank you Martin!
As always please let us know about bugs or typos in the release
either here or by filing a bug on the TEI SourceForge site
