<sourceDesc> <p>This document is a much revised and expanded version
of an earlier partial draft produced by the Text Encoding Initiative,
published as a series of fascicles between April 1993 and August 1994
under the general name of P2. These parts derived from the first draft
proposal (<q>P1</q>) of the Text Encoding Initiative, published in
1990 as <bibl><title>Guidelines for the encoding and interchange of
machine-readable texts</title> edited by C.M.Sperberg-McQueen and Lou
Burnard (Chicago and Oxford, ALLC/ACH/ACL Text Encoding Initiative,
1990)</bibl>. Earlier versions of several chapters of the present work
appeared first as working papers of the TEI.
<p>The revised reprint was carried out at Oxford during 1997 and 1998.
