Subject: [MEI-L] Order of Guidelines chapters<br/>
<br/>
Dear list,<br/>
<br/>
while preparing the documentation for the upcoming release of MEI, we<br/>
stumbled upon an issue where we would like to get some feedback from<br/>
the community.<br/>
<br/>
The next release release includes a new module in MEI (FRBR...), and<br/>
we wondered about the preferences for ordering. It would make a lot<br/>
of sense to put the new chapter next to the existing header chapter,<br/>
but as all chapters are automatically numbered, this would result in<br/>
different chapter numbers for almost the complete Guidelines of the<br/>
new release, compared to the 2012 release. My question is: Do you<br/>
prefer<br/>
<br/>
a) to keep existing chapter numbers whenever possible, or<br/>
<br/>
b) to have chapters organized by their relationship, ignoring<br/>
changing numbers?<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
Technically, it is not a big deal to implement it either way. I have<br/>
a slight preference for b), but am open to arguments from both sides.<br/>
There isn't much time left for discussion, so if you have strong<br/>
opinions, please respond before Monday.<br/>
<br/>
Best,<br/>
Johannes<br/>
<br/>
