[MEI-L] Question about mRest, dur and dots in MEI 3 and 4

[Andrew Hankinson]

I can't tell you exactly why it's happening, but I suspect there's something going wrong here:

https://github.com/music-encoding/encoding-tools/blob/main/mei30To40/mei30To40.xsl#L367-L415 <https://github.com/music-encoding/encoding-tools/blob/main/mei30To40/mei30To40.xsl#L367-L415>

Particularly lines 410-413.
