Entries with multiple registration numbers #1

Closed seanredmond closed 6 years ago

When an entry has multiple registration numbers DCL proposes to split them into several entries.

We'll want to make sure we can properly group them together. Perhaps add a splitFrom attribute (better name?) to the copyrightEntry element that would be an IDREF to the id of the first in the group?

Looking at #5, if we keep the registrationNumber element maybe we also need a registrationNumberRange element? I would propose:

<registrationNumberRange>
    <registrationNumber>A 159923</registrationNumber>, <registrationNumber>159924</registrationNumber>
</registrationNumberRange>

<registrationNumberRange>
    <registrationNumber>A 160078</registrationNumber>-<registrationNumber>160078</registrationNumber>
</registrationNumberRange>

It would require something similar for the volumes. The first example is something different altogether.

This is partly fixed by #21, the first example completely when there's a "tail" of additional registrations. The other examples are trickier since they're embedded and all kind of mixed up.
