charters numbers only as attributes ?

[Patrick Sahle]

<num>-element

There are two possibilities:
1.) We simply recommend to use it for the described purposes (running
number of a charter in a collection)
2.) We aim on estabishing a new element. It seems to me, that <num> as
defined in P4 isn't exactly what we are talking about. IN P4 it's extremely
generic and it's not connected to any specific semantic meaning - as it is
in our case. In P4 it means "this is a number" (like: "this is a word"),
but not "this is the (running) number of an object"

Uh, and I forgot the third possibility: use <num> and a specific (yet to
define) attribute ...

cheers,
