            <p>The TEI Council is responsible for the technical development of the TEI DTD. It
                recommends, evaluates, and implements new features and modifications of existing
                features, and supervises the overall development of each new version of the
                Guidelines. At the TEI annual members' meeting, the Council presents a <ref
                    target="Reports/">report on current work</ref>, and reports are available from
                the <ref target="Meetings/">meetings</ref> of the Council as well.</p>

            <p>The TEI Council consists of twelve members. The Chair of the Board of Directors and
                one other Board member serve on the Council; the other members are elected to
                staggered two-year terms by the TEI membership at the annual Members' Meeting. The
                Council meets once or twice a year in person, and holds a telephone conference call
                roughly every other month. </p>
