Based on this discussion (<URL:

8dd9130>, I've posted a revision to the model for newspaper circulations and
prices.  The current model has separate properties for "daily circulation"
and "Sunday circulation", and likewise for prices.  My proposed change turns
these into CVTs -- one for circulation and one for price. The CVTs include a
property for "edition", which expects a new type (Newspaper Edition Type)
that will hold the "Sunday", "Daily", "Evening", etc. values.

The properties are currently living on a type in a private domain; if people
like them, I'll move them over to the commons Newspaper type.
