The TEI office is pleased to announce that the following files are
now available from the TEI-L Fileserver:
 
  Filename Filetype  Title
  -------- --------  ------
 
      The first four files pertain to the content, structure and
     distribution of P2, the second version of the TEI Guidelines.
 
 
  EDJ6     MEMO      A Note on the Contents and Structure of P2
           GML
 
  EDJ7     MEMO      Obtaining Electronic Versions of P2
           GML       (For TEI-L Subscribers)
 
 
  EDJ8     MEMO      Obtaining Electronic Versions of P2/
           GML       How to Subscribe to TEI-L
 
 
  EDJ9     Memo      Obtaining Paper Copies of P2
           GML
 
The following three files are basic introductions to SGML and TEI.
 
 
  EDW25    LATEX     What is SGML, and How Does It Help?
     [This will be available in MEMO format in coming weeks.]
 
 
  EDW26    TEX       Introduction to the TEI
     [This will be available in MEMO format in coming weeks.]
 
  TEIJ16   MEMO      An Overview of the Text Encoding Initiative

TEI J16 and TEI ED W26 have slightly different emphases.  TEI J16
describes the origin, history and structure of the TEI, while
TEI ED W26 explores in more depth the conceptual issues underlying
the TEI.  Both are useful for background on the TEI.

As described in TEI ED J7, TEI ED J8 and TEI ED J9, TEI P2 will be
placed on the fileserver in sections, or fascicles, in the coming
months, unlike TEI P1 which was only available in hard copy.
Announcements of the availability of these fascicles will be made on
TEI-L, and requests may be made electronically to the TEI offices in
Chicago and Oxford.
 
A number of other TEI Working Papers are already available from the
source and more will be added in the coming weeks.
 
Files are available in a number of formats (see TEI ED J7, TEI ED J8,
and TEI J9 for filetypes specific to TEI P2):
 
  MEMO:  ASCII, easy-to-read on the screen
 
  GML: Waterloo GML adjusted by TEI macros (available from TEI)
 
  LATEX/TEX: Marked-up in LaTeX or TeX.
