A Minimal TEI Customization

This TEI ODD defines a TEI customization that is as minimal as possible and the schema generated from it will validate a document that is minimally valid against the TEI scheme. It includes only the ten required elements:

- <teiHeader> from the header module to store required metadata
- <fileDesc> from the header module to record information about this file
- <titleStmt> from the header module to record information about the title
- <publicationStmt> from the header module to detail how it is published
- <sourceDesc> from the header module to record where it is from
- <p> from the core module for use in the header and the body
- <title> from the core module for use in the titleStmt
- <TEI> from the textstructure module because what is a TEI file without that?
- <text> from the textstructure module to hold some text
- <body> from the textstructure module as a place to put that text
