Syntax and schemas: TEIXML is designed to be validated by an XML Schema Definition (XSD) or RELAX
History and status: TEIXML emerged in theoretical and research circles in the 2010s as a proposal to
Applications and governance: Potential applications include digital libraries, standards bodies, technical journals, and multi-author documentation where
