TEI Customizations
TEI customizations are specializations of the TEI XML specification for use in particular fields or by specific communities.
- EpiDoc (Epigraphic Documents)
- Music Encoding Initiative
- Charters Encoding Initiative
- Medieval Nordic Text Archive (Menota)
Customization in the TEI is done through the ODD mechanism mentioned above. In truth since its P5 version, all so-called 'TEI Conformant' uses of the TEI Guidelines are based on a TEI customization documented in a TEI ODD file. Even when users choose one of the off-the-shelf pre-generated schemas to validate against, these have been created from freely available customization files.
