Agenda items:

• Approve July minutes (before MF/AS upload them to wiki) -- APPROVED

• New chair & co-chair election: Scott DG & Martina volunteer!

• Perhaps best to move to a model where we have overlapping 6-month terms for each (i.e. co-chairs will overlap for three months at a time)

• EpiDoc Wikidata: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5382396

• Deferring discussion for the time being

• Tickets / Markup List Reminder

• <am> content model: guidelines need improving? EM will make ticket and propose wording

• FR 156 Remove legacy Unicode display of glyphs from XSLT

• GB will experiment with solution

• FR 155 Expansion to the ligature guidelines

• Suggestion of expanding guidelines on lemmatization, perhaps including an example from the Norse inscriptions? Check what is the existing practice in traditional Old Norse epigraphic editions

• Deferring action other than clarification until next month’s ticket sprint

• FR 154Marking transitions in language and/​or script in the text

• SJD will take first stab at writing up guidelines; language and script can be handled in header, transitions using <foreign> and/or <seg> seem to be best recommendations

• Might call for discussing with TEI and potentially adding a <langShift> element?

• bug 182 - run guidelines generation process on compiled ODD instead of raw ODD - TE DONE

• Review requested for PR#5 before merging: new sprint to review this? Return to this at Sept ticket sprint.

• EFES Java issues: need people with technical skills to do some tests on Mac

• GB will post request to Markup (DONE)

• SunoikisisDC sessions on EpiDoc (1) text transcription encoding (GB & PY); (2) structured description/history (GB & SJD)

• Ticket sprint next month: GB will be TicketWrangler
