[Schematron] CFP: TEI tutorials & workshops (Mon 11-05 to Wed 11-07 @ TAMU)

[Syd Bauman]

 I think a 0.5 or 1.0 day hands-on tutorial on RELAX NG, or a 1.0 or
 1.5 day hands-on tutorial on Schematron would be quite apropos for
 this group. (What would be best, IMHO, is a 3-day hands-on tutorial
 on TEI customization that covers TEI, ODD, RELAX NG, and Schematron,
 but the call limits tutorials to 2 days.)  -- Syd

Call for pre-conference workshop and tutorial proposals

TEI and the C(r|l)o(w|u)d
2012 Annual Conference and Members? Meeting of the TEI Consortium
Texas A&M University, Initiative for Digital Humanities, Media, and Culture

* Workshop proposals due Wed 15 May 2012
* Workshop dates: Mon 5 November to Wed 7 November, 2012
* Meeting dates: Wed 7 November to Sat 10 November, 2012 (see separate call)

The TEI Conference and Members' Meeting will be preceded by
educational tutorials or workshops. The goal of the tutorials is to
give an opportunity to learn more about the use of TEI markup under
the guidance of experienced instructors and practitioners, whereas
workshops are an opportunity for specific groups to meet and work
together on a TEI related subject.

Workshops and tutorials range in length from a single morning or
afternoon to a maximum of two days. Tutorials are run on a
cost-recovery basis: a separate fee is charged of participants that
is intended to cover the costs of running the tutorial. Workshops are
expected to be free of charges.

If you are interested in proposing either a workshop or a tutorial
for the 2012 Members? Meeting and Conference, please submit your
proposal as early as possible and before 15 May 2012 via conftool,
the availability of which will be announced shortly. Expressions of
interest should include as much as possible of the following
information (the committee is willing to work with proposers in
developing their proposals):
   * A proposed topic
   * A rationale explaining why this topic is likely to draw sufficient attention to the TEI community
   * Preferred length of the event
   * Infrastructural requirements
   * (In the case of a tutorial) A proposed instructor or slate of
     instructors including brief discussion of relevant experience,
     as well as a preliminary budget of your anticipated costs (if
     any).
   * (In the case of a workshop) A core list of people who are likely
     to participate, keeping in mind that workshops are by essence
     open for participation
Organisational and infrastructure costs (e.g. coffee breaks and the
like) will be determined later in conjunction with the local
organising committee.

Tutorial proposals will be evaluated by the programme committee
primarily on the basis of their likely appeal to the TEI community,
the quality of the proposed instructors and method of instruction,
and cost. The committee will work with selected organizers after this
date to refine the details of their proposals.

Please send queries to meeting at tei-c.org.
