Hi James, hi Matthew,

thanks for the clarification, because this was new to me! Perhaps we
should adjust the note in the <biblScope> reference? Right now, it seems
for me, that the note is (regarding the difference to <citedRange>) a
little bit missunderstandig:

"When a single page is being cited, use the @from and @to attributes
with an identical value. When no clear endpoint is provided, the @from
attribute should be used without @to. For example, if the citation has
‘p. 3ff’ as a page reference."

Perhaps we could make also a reference to the element <citedRange>?

Best regards,
Stefan
