Lots of catch-up to do after last week's TEI Council meeting, and SVN conflicts kept me from leaving for ages.
PS and I worked out a document structure on the board, so I can get a design area working on the server. I set this up in the controller-config, and then started moving stuff around in SVN so that the redesign materials on the server are in the same place as they are in SVN. This got me into a bunch of SVN conflicts which took hours to resolve. Grrr. Working now, hopefully.
Meeting with library folks re collaboration plans.
Encoding team will work on the three docs under way (le_blanc, le_bon, and ville_t) while I'll work on the port to eXist; following that, we'll start on the modern spelling plan.
10-3, 5 hours. 0 remaining. If anyone has any questions at all please email me!
I've noticed a few cases of locations that are referenced with regard to a real location but in a mythical context, for example: Aeolia, the floating island occupied by Aelous, keeper of the winds, is likely a mythical addition to the Aeolian islands. A similar example would be the relationship between Hades and Tartarus, in which the former has sources supporting a geographic location for the entrance. It would therefore be tempting to associate it with Tartarus, but Tartarus exists purely in the mythical context. Greg is looking at a way to associate cases like this where it is a mythical overlay transposed on a real geographic location.

I believe argiveTerritory in places.xml is the same as Argolis. If so, please make it an aka of Argolis and adjust texts accordingly.
