On Tuesday, published the peer-review anthology 0.1.7.
On Thursday, did a lot of work on the PDFs, clearing a few tickets; we now have a consensus on the appearance and spacing of the stage direction tables, which I’ve implemented, as well as page breaks between scenes, which significantly reduces the problems for the layout engine trying to avoid disagreeable things. I’ve also surfaced the print build reports on Jenkins so people working on the PDFs can see their diagnostic info, which should help a lot, and those diagnostics will probably expand a bit.
On Friday, debugged a build break caused by two annotations whose pointers were
in backwards order. Confirmed that the text diagnostics would catch this, so it
shouldn’t really have been committed. We also had a new problem when generating
the schemas from lemdo.odd; it turns out that there’s a bug in recent TEI work
which causes a broken RNG file to be generated when att.declarable
is deleted. We had to switch our Oxygens to the release version of the plugin
to regenerate the schema and avoid the error. SB and I are working on the
issue in TEI.
