<rs>/<persName>/<name>
Both Bill and Liz have some interesting uses of <name> and <persName> in their texts.
Liz's example: "The Esquimeaux Indian(s)"
-in this case, we decided it would be appropriate to nest <rs type="properAdjective"> within <name>, with <rs> around "Esquimeaux" and <name> around "Esquimeaux Indians" -We also discussed, that although Kamira is referred to as "the Indian" or "the Esquimeaux" frequently in the text, it would not qualify as <persName>, as other characters are also referred to by these names.
Bill's example: "le beau Henri" (in quotes)
-We decided that in this case, only "Henri" would get persName. The rest would be placed within <soCalled>, since the narrator distances his/herself from this name ("Louise de Rimont [. . .] generally styled him "le beau Henri").
Stage directions
We couldn't quite figure out what to do with the stage direction "manet"/manent" (which indicates that a given character should remain on stage). It's quite obviously not "enter" or "exit," or even "business." We've decided to add a value for @type on <stage>, which will probably be something like "remains" (however the name may change). We will wait to actually change it until we've discussed the rest of the <stage>-related questions, since there may be other values to add!
Soft/Hard Hyphen errors
After some questions from Nicole, we clarified that the warnings on the soft-hyphen report should be ignored if the encoding/transcription is correct. For example, if the element is supplied or there is a <gap/> at the beginning or end of a word that contains a soft hyphen. the encoding should be kept as-is.
