The DraCor Schema 1.6.0 now supports TEI version 4.12.0.

From 7 to 9 September 2026, the University of Rostock will host the hackathon Women Playwrights in Digital Corpora. The event focuses on the digital representation and computational analysis of plays by women, with particular attention to their integration into the DraCor research infrastructure.

The DraCor API 1.4.1, Frontend 2.7.1 and Schema 1.5.1 have been released to introduce new features and improve existing ones.

A coding agent's view of redesigning EcoCor's data model at the Potsdam hackathon — vanilla TEI, stand-off annotation layers, gold-standard alignment, and 740 files of layered output by the end.

Three days at the Potsdam "Environments in and as Networks" hackathon — where I came to build an MCP server, ended up redesigning the API to carry multiple annotation layers, and discovered that EcoCor was becoming a useful test case for how far DraCor's infrastructure can travel.

The DraCor API version 1.3.0 and other components support the latest DraCor Schema.

Version 1.4.0 simplifies the markup for Wikidata IDs and other metadata and consolidates the corpus.xml format.

As part of DraCorOS, we ran a user survey to better understand how researchers use DraCor and what they most need next.

Enhanced API, Frontend and Schema, Comprehensive Documentation, and Upcoming Summit in Berlin. The first major DraCor platform update in the context of DraCorOS.

DraCor has been selected for funding by the EU-funded OSCARS project. Over the next 24 months, DraCorOS will connect the DraCor ecosystem to EOSC, deepen its Open Science commitments, and open the platform up for reuse beyond drama corpora.
