Re: locus from line 10 of folio 1r to line 5 of folio 3v

Dear Pietro,

the attribute @n doesn't have the semantic you need: It is just a number 
but not necessarily (and not predictable!) the one of a line.

A solution I can think of would be to define the line either

- as textual line as part of the "transcription" somewhere in <text> or 
<sourceDoc> and refer to that it from your <locus>, or

- as zone in some graphical element (surface, graphic) and point to that 
using @facs.

I don't think there's a defined way of including this information in 
@from/@to of the locus element, although it should be possible to think 
of the line as a fragment of the page, and thus refer to that fragment 
using the XPointer way: uri#fragmentIdentifier, here e.g. 1r#l10. Still, 
this way would require to identify the fragment somewhere by an @xml:id.


Best, Torsten
