Even if we do end-up using a 'nonstandard' XML markup at DP, I agree with Joshua that we should try as hard as possible to ensure it can be converted easily to TEI (derivatives of which seem to be in favour around here). People at PG will not see the DP-internal markup, only our output, which will conform to the standards we will hopefully agree on at some point :).
It doesn't matter if it is "non-standard XML" (of course, there is no such thing, as long as it is a well-formed XML document). Once the format is in something like XML, we are all free to create our own output from that base, including "correcting" the XML to output a different form of XML from it. David A.
