I haven't noticed any responses to this discussion yet. I bring this up 
because we have also noticed that none of the changes to <gap>, 
att.dimensions, etc. are in the current development guidelines. (Which 
means, I imagine, that it's not in P5.1, then?)

>> Gabriel proposed  the following two changes as resolution for this ticket
>> after the last Council:
>>
>> ----
>> (1) @extent and @unit on gap are to be suppressed, and instead gap will be
>> made a member of att.dimensions, which gives it @quantity and @unit.
>>
>> (2) att.dimensions is to be extended by the addition of attributes: @from
>> and @to (to indicate ranges of quantities); @atLeast and @atMost (for
>> uncertain/imprecise quantities).
>> ----
>>
>> The trouble with this is that we also decided to add @precision to both att.dimensions and att.editLike.
>> Adding <gap> (which is a member of att.editLike) to att.dimensions would thus give it the same attribute twice.
>>
>> Suggestions?
