Abstract :
We report on experience gained from our ongoing multiyear project to produce an Electronic Variorum Edition of Cervantes´ Don Quixote de la Mancha. Initially designed around a custom database representation, the project´s evolution has lead to the adoption of a TEI-based format for information interchange among the project´s major components. We discuss the mechanics of this approach and its benefits.
