2. Material

DMLex Working Draft

The technical infrastructure is briefly discussed, but further discussion is postponed to the editing session where David will be present. The working template is on Github. However, Michal found the XML structure overly complicated and decided to reduce the complezity by turning every module in a separate XML document.DocBook is however still considered the preferred format.

DMLex WD Technical discussion

We continue he technical discussion starting from Michal's proposal. It is noted that we discuss the model, but that it is good to keep serialisations in mind.Terms are used as abstract terms not specific to any specific serialisation. We discuss when something should be a separate module. Either we turn as much as possible into separate modules or we put as much as possbile in core except for maybe linking and scoping. This has Michal's preference. John wonders what the technical cost of a module is, and thinks that this should be taken into account in this discussion. It is noted that etymology is missing (which should be a separate module). It is noted that there a still quite a few gaps.

Current design principles remain unchanged at the meeting:
