[MEI-L] MEI workshop at 2012 AMS meeting

[Roland, Perry (pdr4h)]

Hello, everyone,

Please pardon any duplicate posts and forward liberally. :-)

"Introduction to MEI," an intensive, hands-on workshop, will be offered Wednesday, 31 October from 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Experts from the Music Encoding Initiative Council will teach the workshop, during which participants will learn about MEI history and design principles, tools for creating, editing, and rendering MEI, and techniques for customizing the MEI schema. The day will include lectures, hands-on practice, and opportunities to address participant-specific issues.

There are no fees associated with this workshop and no previous experience with MEI or XML is required; however, an understanding of music notation and other markup schemes, such as HTML and TEI, will be helpful. Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop computer for hands-on exercises. The number of participants is limited to 25. Register early at http://tinyurl.com/2012meiWorkshopAMS. Registration for the AMS meeting is not required.
