Re: [ #456174 ] Req: a <YearRange> within <copyright>


Given the legal question raised, wouldn't it be better to distinguish in
case there are legal implications?

<copyright>
  <range>
    <from>1990</from>
    <to>2000</to>
  </range>
</copyright>

or 

<copyright>
  <year>1999</year>
  <year>2000</year>
</copyright>

<!ELEMENT copyright (range | year)+ >
<!ELEMENT range (from, to) >

something like that?
