[RDA-L] 2.4.3.3 Parallel statements of responsibility

When a resource has parallel statements of responsibility on its chief source of information, but only the connecting words are parallel, not the names themselves, how does one treat this under RDA? E.g., what I see on the t.p.: Mit Beiträgen von/With contributions by ... hg. von/ed. by ...

Ben, I think the / should indeed be replaced by a = according to 1.7.3, as it obviously is a case of parallel statements of responsibility (i.e. two different RDA elements). But I'd find it odd to have only Mit Beiträgen von as one of these statements of responsibility. As this is only an

I agree with Heidrun that you could apply 1.7.7 Letters or Words Intended to Be Read More Than Once “If a letter or word appears only once but the design of the source of information makes it clear that it is intended to be read more than once, repeat the letter or word.” Notice that this

It makes sense, but it's actually the outcome I was hoping to avoid as this also happens to be a t.p. with an extensive list of contributors (over 80 of them) on the t.p. (And yes, the abbreviations are on the source.) So it would end up looking like this: Mit Beiträgen von Fernando Aguiar

No parallel title, just the s-o-r's. And certainly the mit should not be capitalized (and isn't on the piece) that was my mistake. I don't know if there's a character limit in OCLC or not. But there is a character limit to my brain, so I'm going to use the optional omission. :) Thanks, Ben
