[tei-council] last call for next release

[Arianna Ciula]

As commented in Sourceforge, I think it would be a good thing to have 
<locusGrp> not only for expressing one case of grouping discontinuous 
ranges, but also, eventually, to group various loci in different ways 
according to the scope of the analysis.

The example in the guidelines about foliation may be one case:
<locusGrp target="#item1">
<locus scheme="#original">XCIII</locus>
<locus scheme="#modern">135</locus>
</locusGrp>

So what I am saying is that may be it will be too limiting to allow the 
use of <locusGrp> ONLY for discontinuous ranges.

Torsten suggests it may also be useful within <decoNote> and I would 
say, what about <handNote> too then?

See for instance the example at 
http://www.diamm.ac.uk/jsp/Source.jsp?navToggle=1&sourceKey=805

The fourth paragraph contains some notes on a specific scribe who 
contributed to other manuscripts too.

This is just to say that I am in favour of this new element, but may be 
we need to think more of where else it would be useful and what 
attributes to supply it with.

May the MS SIG had some discussion about this already?
