EpiDoc 9.8 - Final Release

[Nicolas Souchon]

Dear EFES Users,

We are pleased to inform you that EpiDoc version 9.8 has now been released!

You can find the email to the markup list announcing it at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/wa-jisc.exe?A2=EPIDOC-MARKUP;652b2ab1.2602.

In case there's a need to align the EFES code with this new EpiDoc version, we leave it to the EFES administrators. We thank them in advance for having a look at that question and check if any action is required from them for this alignment.

Best,

Scott Vanderbilt & Nicolas Souchon

I don't think any changes need to be made to the EFES code, as (if I understand correctly), the .gitmodules in the EFES repo points directly to the "latest" branch of the EpiDoc Reference Stylesheets, which is the branch into which the most recent tagged release (as of today, 9.8) is copied.

For clarity, though: this is a question that is the responsibility of the EpiDoc release process. The "EFES Administrators" are EpiDoc, and any changes to the EFES repo to bring it into line with latest EpiDoc developments is part of the task of making an EpiDoc release. As I say, I don't think there is anything to do given the Git setup, but that's for the release process to confirm, not to just say "if there's anything to be done, it's someone else's problem." 🙂

Best,

Gabby

Dear Gabby,

Thank you for your feedback and for clarifying the relationship between EFES and EpiDoc.

I will update the release process documentation accordingly and rewrite the information email accordingly.

Best,

Nicolas
