Oxygen XML Forum

We released version 4.8.0 of the TEI on July 8, and the release introduced a new module and element for encoding computer-mediated communication (CMC) for archiving psots on born-digital discussion forums: The plugin is released on GitHub here: https://github.com/TEIC/oxygen-tei/releases/tag/v20.0.0
Would you be able to incorporate this in oXygen soon? We noticed that opening TEI-All using oXygen's implementation of TEI doesn't allow for the new element we introduced. We're featuring the new CMC module at the upcoming TEI Conference in Buenos Aires (October 7-11) and would like new users of TEI and oXygen to feel confident using the new encoding. We also understand if it's not possible to issue an update in time for the conference, and can point our new users to our README instructions for installing the latest TEI plugin in oXygen from our sourcecode.

We hope you're able to include our latest version / plugin soon.
Thanks,
Elisa Beshero-Bondar

Hello,

Thank you for the heads-up. We plan to upgrade it in time for the Oxygen 27 release, which is scheduled for mid-November. In the meantime, it's good that we have the add-on. In fact, that's why we extracted the TEI framework—to quickly accommodate new TEI versions.

Best regards,
Alex
