TEI 2017 Conference

Workshops now included; sent a link to UClub for them to vet our arrangements from their point of view.

We had to do some last minute tweaks, and get help from both the UVic and host ends of the equation, but finally everything is hooked up and tested with real cards, and now live. The site has been edited appropriately. I've also been working on the schedule rendering, which I've brought into the main site (although only on dev); none of the abstract stuff is linked yet, but it's close to being ready.

I'm now happy with the way the abstracts are rendering, and we have a working presenters page and abstracts page. The next phase is to get the schedule working properly as a php include on the main site.

Things are slowly coming together. One hard thing is combining the changing build process for the abstracts and their info with the PHP pages of the site, but we're working out effective ways to do that.

More work on the schedule, finalizing the last day; tweaks to rendering as PS makes changes to the main site rendering.

We're down to the finer details of scheduling, especially for the last day, and I've also added a lot more templates to the HTML output rendering as I work through the papers and find new stuff I haven;t dealt with yet. The XSLT is all a bit ad-hoc but we're getting there.

I had quick-and-simple results working which were good enough for the workshops, but I've now started methodically working through the documents to check and correct output issues, and made a lot of progress (doing only the first three abstracts so far). I've switched to XSLT 3.0 to allow me to use the @suppress-indentation attribute for better results with egXML output.

I've built out a new schedule in TEI form, and written some basic rendering for it. One article appears to be missing from the lists from KT, so I'm waiting for word back on that.

This should have been a fairly simple job, but it turns out that the repo and the server copy were completely out of sync, so I ended up overwriting a lot of stuff with old content from the repo; I had to retrieve it as best I could from the www-dev version. PS's local copy seems to have got completely out of sync with the repo. I've added all the latest versions from the site into the repo, which will make his local copy unsyncable until he's resolved all the conflicts.

Ready for linking from the registration form when that's ready. Now working on the rest of the abstract rendering.
