Well, I thought we had already agreed to (c) at least with respect to
<dimensions>, and so have implemented it. However, this does leave us
with the question of what to do with <measureGrp> (which currently is
declared, but not used anywhere.)
Possibilities:
1. Abolish it.
2. Keep it (w/o text content) as a measure-like thing. May be useful
for things like
My neighbor has a <measureGrp>
<measure type="diameter" unit="m" quantity="5.5">18 foot</measure>
<measure unit="L" quantity="28800">7,600 gallon</measure>
</measureGrp> pool
3. Keep it with a different name and w/ text content as a
measure-like thing. May be useful for things like
My neighbor has a <measureSet>
<measure type="diameter" unit="m" quantity="5.5">18</measure>
by
<measure type="height" unit="m" quantity="1.2">4</measure>,
<measure unit="L" quantity="28800">7,600 gallon</measure>
</measureSet> pool

I pretty much just reverted to what we had previously -- but will our
ODD to DTD transformation make legal DTDs out of c-2 and c-3?
