I re-read this and realised that I could have given a more informative
reply: people responsible (in any way) for the dictionary in question
should be listed in the respStmt, with xml:id. The @who is indeed a
reference pointing inside the respStmt.
Best,
P.
3. How should I encode the person doing the change? The example shows|who="#some_user". |This seems to reference a user declaration somewhere else. Do we have an example how that "somewhere else" should look? Or should I use <name> tags instead, like we do in at least some of our dictionaries?|
I think it would be good to hid the Howto, or at least tag it as mostly historical and definitely not normative. Please have a look at e.g. swh-eng, it should have a proper header.
Thanks again for your attention to detail,
Best,
Piotr
