Maybe. The reason why I suggested using the <q> element was to allow the 
use of <transChange>.

What I now understand is that my solution depended upon reading a 
different structure from the one you are reading in the text to adapt to 
the markup (rather than the other way around).

When you say:

 > I cannot milestone a transChange, and I
 > cannot start a speech (or a quote) inside of a transChange.

You do not mean that the <speech> or <q> should be contained inside the 
<transChange>? Correct?

In other words, what you are really looking for is for <transChange> to 
become milestoneable such that you can start a <q> or <speech> inside a 
<transChange>?

Taking your earlier example:

"Some <say, 'He is> John the Baptist,'

You want:

<q>Some <transChange sID="0101" type="added"/>say <q>He is<transChange 
eID="0101"> John the Baptist,</q></q>

So it is <transChange> being able to cross element boundaries (along 
with the appropriate content models) that is the issue?

Sorry, you're right, I missed that from the original post.

The other question will be, what advantages/disadvantages are there to 
the following:

<q>Some <transChange type="added">say</transChange><q><transChange 
type="added">He is</transChange> John the Baptist</q></q>

Captures the <transChange> without crossing the boundaries.

May need to look at where transChange can occur, presently:

catchWord
cell
chapter
closer
div
item
label
l
mentioned
p
q
rdg
salute
seg
speech
verse

Children of <transChange>

a
abbr
date
divineName
foreign
hi
index
lb
milestone
milestoneEnd
milestoneStart
name
note
reference
seg
w

Apologies for the length of this response. This is something we will 
need to look at during our next meeting and I wanted to capture as much 
information as possible on the issue.

Hope you are having a great day!

Patrick
