Hi Matias,

I'll reply properly in a few days, but essentially DV_PARAGRAPH is a minimal 
construct for grouping blocks of text forming unstructured narrative. Obviously 
you want to use structured entry as much as possible for processibility; or 
else 
post-process narrative into structured (i;e; SECTOIN; ENTRY etc) as they do at 
Mayo. But don'ty forget you can always post-process structured data into 
readabl narrative. Philippe Ameline can talk more about this - his system does 
it. 
So DV_PARAFGRAPH is really only for capturing large amounts of unstructured 
narrative, and allowing the additoin of a bit of hyperlinking; minimal 
for,atting etc. 
I personally suspect we might get rid of it one day and just use 
DV_ENCAPSULATED to contain word-processor text or HTML or whatever 
instead.
