Hi Jere

It might be worth trying, something like: <personname
role="approver">AJH</personname>.  Does anyone see obvious problems
with this approach?

It doesn't say anything about the *content* of personname, which in my
case is a set of initials (or any opaque moniker); i.e. it *isn't* a
first- or a surname, or any of the other allowed child elements.

I'm not that concerned with the fact that this is an approver. For that
I'd use::

   <othercredit>
       <personname>
           <firstname>John</firstname> <surname>Doe</surname>
       </personname>
       <contrib>Approver</contrib>
   </othercredit>
