Example
<respons target="#p1" locus="name location" resp="#encoder1"/>
<respons
  target="#p2"
  match="@rend"
  locus="value"
  resp="#encoder2"/>
<list type="encoders">
 <item xml:id="encoder1"/>
 <item xml:id="encoder2"/>
</list>
Note
The respons element is designed for cases in which fine-grained information about specific aspects of the markup of a text is desirable for whatever reason. Global responsibility for certain aspects of markup is usually more simply indicated in the TEI header, using the respStmt element within the title statement, edition statement, or change log.
