Sperberg-McQueen and Lou Burnard <docnum>TEI &docfile. <date>16 March 1993 </titlep> </frontm> <!> <body> TEI P2 is the first draft of one of the final work products of the TEI; the others will be a set of discipline-specific tutorials (TEI U1 et seq.) and one or more `case-books' (TEI T1 et seq.) giving extended examples of TEI tags being used in various applications. It contains three major parts: a prose specification, a reference section and full document type definitions (DTDs). The prose specification is divided into 6 major sections, which are briefly summarized below. Each section contains brief descriptions of the tags proposed in a particular area, a formal summary of their proper usage with simple illustrative examples, and DTD fragments. The reference section is an alphabetic list of all elements, attributes and element classes defined in the TEI DTDs, giving a full definition for each together with a formal description of its usage. The whole is extensively cross referenced. There follows a summary table of contents, as currently envisaged. Each chapter has an alphabetical abbreviation (shown in parentheses after the chapter title) that is useful in obtaining it from the TEI-L fileserver (on the fileserver, "P2" will precede the abbreviation.) <fn>The first three chapters released use numerical instead of alphabetical identifiers in their file names: Character Sets (P221), the TEI Header (P222), and Base Tag Set for Transcription of Spoken Texts (P234). </fn> Chapters which have been published are marked with an asterisk and include section headings. <ul> <li>Front Matter <li>Part I.
