the gaps between them. Finally, I will illustrate my findings with the help of a concrete
example, which is as TEI-specific as it can get: I will describe the history of the TEI
Conference 2016 abstracts, which have, since the conference, been transformed into a TEI
data set that has been published not only on <ptr type="software" xml:id="GitHub"

eXistdb-powered web application. This is by any standard a wonderful development for a

been published under an open license, especially since their authors come from fourteen
