P3, P4, P5☛ P3, aka The Big Green Books first published in
April 1994 and last revised May 1999: the finaldeliverable from the ACH-ALLC-ACL projectbegun in Poughkeepsie in 1990
☛ P4, aka The XML Version is due for publicationDecember 2001 (if you approve it!)
☛ P5, aka TEI — the next generation has nopublication date yet. It will not necessarily retaincompatibility with P3 but transition aids will beprovided.

P4: The XML Edition☛ Unlike P3, it is itself expressed (and processed)
using XML
☛ Its DTD can be configured as SGML or as XML
☛ Parts now considered obsolescent are flaggedas such, but retained
☛ Compatibility with P3 DTDs is also retained: aP3-conformant document is ipso factoP4-conformant

Some infrastructural issues☛ How can we make the Guidelines more
accessible?
☛ Should we continue to support {SG,X}ML?
☛ How do we inter-operate with other standards?

Work Is Needed In These Areas1. Character set issues
2. Core tags
3. Metadata, mini-headers
4. Manuscript description and transcription
5. Standoff markup; XLink and TEI Xpointers
6. Termbanks, dictionaries, ontologies
7. Schemas, enhanced validation services, Son ofODD
8. New areas I haven’t thought of
Evangelization and training as above

Character set issues☛ Unicode only?
☛ W(h)ither the WSD?
☛ Glyph definition mechanism?
☛ Redefine LANG? What price xml:lang?

Core issues(See forthcoming EDW76 Editors’ summary ofproposed revisions)
☛ An expandable list
☛ Things which have annoyed at least one TEIuser enough for them to have proposed a fix
☛ For example:
☛ consistent treatment for dates and times☛ review divtop and divbot elements☛ simple extensions for authoring☛ linking page images☛ etc.
☛ cf. the Technical Core Committee whichproduced the May 1999 revision.

Metadata matters!The TEI Header is rooted in the library world, andas such is one of our most successful contributionsto the digital library. But:-
☛ non-librarians need metadata too
☛ we need to provide better tools forinteroperability with current (post-MARC)standards:
☛ RDF, Topic Maps☛ Dublin Core☛ OLAC☛ METS
☛ we need to make good our claims with respectto long term digital preservation issues
We cannot afford to miss this boat!

Editorial Work Programme beyond P4 13 Humanities Computing Unit
Manuscripts, their descriptionand transcription☛ a key TEI community
☛ much work has been done; it simply needs tobe completed
☛ emphasis should be on usability, promotion,demonstration
☛ expansion beyond medieval western tradition:include incunables, early print works,non-European traditions. . .
☛ digital scholarly editions
☛ modern manuscript transcription
The ESTATE project, and others

Standoff Markup, Xpointersetc.☛ Existing TEI mechanisms need to be made
more visible, and better tested
☛ Urgent need to review TEI extended pointersyntax and decide how to interoperate withW3C standards
☛ Critical to usage of TEI in the linguisticscommunity
☛ multimodal annotation☛ annotation graphs
Can we afford to miss this boat?

Editorial Work Programme beyond P4 15 Humanities Computing Unit
Termbanks, dictionaries,ontologies☛ Original TEI proposals for terminology are
obsolete; new standards are in town
☛ TEI proposals for dictionaries require extensiverevision for technical reasons: we need todecide whether we are aiming to encodeexisting dictionaries, or new ones
☛ A new set of TEI proposals for computationallexica, ontologies, and termbanks would solveboth problems
☛ Interoperability with other standards is alsocrucial here: cf TC37/SC4
Potentially, a key TEI constituency.

Schemata and enhancedvalidation☛ In P3, we had DTDs only, with some prose
specification of additional constraints (for TEIconformance. . . )
☛ In P4, XMLification mostly meant removingsuch few constraints as were available in DTDcontent models
☛ In P5, we could introduce full schematron-likecontent validation
☛ This would require further modification to theODD system, but nothing much beyond what isalready implicit
☛ We could also generate multiple schemas, withspecific associated documentation
We could also consider other formalisms, e.g. UML

New areas we haven’t thoughtofBy definition, we haven’t anything much to sayabout these, but. . .
☛ tags for authoring
☛ tags for éditions génétiques
☛ tags for multimodal communicative acts
☛ develop feature structure annotation
☛ develop metrical annotation scheme
☛ develop image annotation scheme
