The TEI Technical Council is responsible for the development and maintenance of the TEI Guidelines and other TEI systems and resources. 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 report on current work, and minutes are available from
the meetings of the Council as well. The archives
of the TEI Technical Council mailing list are public accessible and ongoing and past work can be seen on
the bug and feature request trackers on the TEI's SourceForge site.
The TEI Technical Council consists of twelve members. The Chair of the Board of Directors and
at least one other person appointed by the Board of Directors 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. The TEI Council sometimes uses the TEI Council Wiki Page
to organize agendas or other information relating to its meetings.
