Dear colleagues,

I just want to bring to your attention, that the TEI Correspondence SIG has filed a feature request for a correspondence module [1] and according meta data elements for the description of correspondence. NB, this proposal addresses not only historic (handwritten) correspondence but should be able to deal with all sorts of modern (digital) correspondence as well. Since there might be some overlap with the interests of this groups I am highly interested to hear your thoughts about this.

Many thanks in advance
and all the best
Peter

Dear Peter,

Yes I agree we need information about addressee / receiver /

Within TEI-CMC
******************
You will find some of our related discussion on this page of the TEI-CMC group :

http://wiki.tei-c.org/index.php/SIG:CMC/Draft:_A_basic_schema_for_representing_CMC_in_TEI

in two places : 1) section <post> ; 2) microstructure

We used this info in Email and discussion forum (since no element existed in TEI we had to encode into the <head>)
In tweets we have proposed an <addresse> with attributes (cf. table).

Oral / speech
***************
There is also an undergoing discussion in the TEI community dealing with speech / oral. For example when you work on CDS (child directed speech) you need to explicitly encode into the <u> element  tell  to whom a specific oral turn is addressed.
In order to do this in we (in our lab, LRL) created a feature structure in the Alipe Corpus : you can download here all or parts of the corpus : http://hdl.handle.net/11041/alipe-000853 and have a look at the <teiheader> where we ecplian how we proceeded.

"Encoding interactions between characters?"
**********************
eventually have a look on the TEI discussion list :
