[tei-council] description of @type's data values

[Martin Holmes]

Thanks Sebastian. I'm hoping to have a little time to work on this tomorrow.

The challenge of checking a list of multiple pointers in Schematron is 
interesting. It might be possible to check pointers to @xml:ids inside 
the same file, but I don't think it's possible to check for the 
existence of a <category> element in another file from inside a 
Schematron constraint, is it?

Cheers,
Martin
