If everybody sees <regestum> as a common and easily understandable term for what we are talking about (all the header-information of an edited charter), then there is no more resistance to this point from my side.
I'm like you, Patrick, i don't like this <regestum> element in <body> element to indicate all the header-information of an edited charter. I understand Georg's argument for the Regesta imperii project. But, for me, our goal is to define a structure of a charter and not just a regestum... For me, if you edite a charter and regestum, it's different : it's two different type of document, so two different structure in XML. Morevoer, i understand the difference between Vollregest and Kopfregest, but if we read the CID definition, a regestum is a little sentence to resume and analyze the charter and not all header-information of an edited charter. It's just a part of this information. If i understand good, the <regestum> element together all the header-information and <tenor> the edited text. But, if we read the TEI guideliness, the <regestum> correspond <front> element and <tenor> correspond <body> element. But, like Patrick, if everybody is ok with <regestum> element, i didn't say nothing. Gautier
