Summarized the CCAP work in a document I circulated; sent some questions to SR and posted one on their forum. Getting close to a sort of a spec for the CSV structure.

Updated my Windows 10 VM (painful) and tested the map with the Spartan browser. All OK as far as we can tell.
I've started the process of re-building the Mariage schema, XML and file structures. I have a "pre-process_xml.xsl" stylesheet which reworks the XML, moving everything from @style to @rendition/rendition elements in the header, and this is partially tested; it has a couple of bugs still to work out, in that it generates duplicate @xml:id elements for a handful of fw elements. The ODD file itself has been partly changed, but is not yet generating a fully-working schema (@rendition does not seem to be available), so I'm working on that now. Once the schema is working, it will disallow various old habits such as biblScope/@type in favour of @unit.
Todo:
- Fix the bug in xml:id generation for fw elements.
- Fix the ODD file so a schema allowing @rendition everywhere is created.
- Test the transformation and make sure it's producing fully-valid and unbroken XML files from the source documents.
- Update all XSL that looks at biblScope/@type on the site so it can handle @unit alongside it.
- Test-upload some transformed documents and ensure that they are displaying correctly in the interface. Fix any bugs arising out of that.
- Commit all converted files in one batch, after checking with CC for a good time to do it.
- Warn CC about changes.
- Upload everything into eXist and test extensively.
