usage of xxxheader files

The xxxheader.xml files are shown by "License of Digital Edition" links on each dictionary's home page. For example, for MW72:

While working on updating the acknowledgments (see https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/GreekInSanskrit/issues/32) in these xxxheader files, I noticed a few other aspects of these files that needed attention.

removal of duplicate

There were two independent copies of these xxxheader.xml files:

I removed the copies in csl-websanlexicon. So, currently, there is only the one source, in csl-pywork/v02/distinctfiles, as indicated above.

sh generate_dict.sh xxx ... copies the csl-pywork copy of xxxheader.xml to xxx/pywork/xxxheader.xml.

It is convenient to have a second copy of the header file as xxx/web/xxxheader.xml ; This web copy is made from the pywork copy as part of the pywork/redo_postxml.sh script.

csl-orig as source location for xxxheader.xml

It might be that the primary source location of these digital license files should be in the csl-orig repository. Namely: csl-orig/v02/xxx/xxxheader.xml.
The reason is that csl-orig/xxx/xxx.txt contains the basic form of the Cologne digitization of xxx.

Then, the generation process (script csl-pywork/v02/generate_dict.sh) could be altered to use the csl-orig version; the csl-pywork/v02/distinctfiles/pywork/xxxheader.xml files would then be removed.

If others agree, I'll effect this change.

xxx-meta2.txt also should be in csl-orig/xxx/

The xxx-meta2.txt files are currently present as csl-pywork/v02/distinctfiles/pywork/xxx-meta2.txt. For example, mw72-meta2.txt.

These files contain some documentation of technical details regarding the digitization xxx.txt, sort of a 'readme' file for the digitization.

I propose that these meta files should also have their primary location in csl-orig: csl-orig/v02/xxx/xxx-meta2.txt.

Do others agree?

I agree with both the proposals. Kindly effect the change.

Good morning! ok, will do.

Sure we agree, but if it's readme can't it be named a readme? :))

funderburkjim commented 4 years ago

xxx-meta2.txt and xxxheader.xml now based in csl-orig/v02.

I kind of like the mysterious nature of 'meta', rather than the pedestrian 'readme' -- don't you?
