Useful links to explore

TEI Manuscripts Special Interest Group

http://www.tei-c.org/Activities/SIG/Manuscript/

This SIG explores a range of issues common to editing manuscripts, including:

   how to handle time based encoding
   how to record place based encoding
   how to encode fragments
   how to record codicology (the substance of the medium, ink stints, etc); Robinson noted that the TEI already has mechanisms to record this, but it needs to be better documented
   issues of substitutions
   issues of variation
   to clarify the role of the critical apparatus tag set in manuscript transcription
