-----------------------------------------------------------------

Checking if the annotations in question also end within the window at least comes more naturally to me, but I guess just starting therein isn't unreasonable either. I don't mind that.

And as for my second point, I'd opt for changing the implementation to suit the guide. I don't see why some annotations should be ignored just because they start at the same position.

> Hi again.
> This may be a bug, but I believe the following is more of a misleading formulation in the Ruta Guide:
>  Comparing the explanation in the official Guide for version 2.8.1 on condition VOTE to its actual behaviour and the source code, there are two things that I find confusing/misleading:
>  - The Guide says on the range within which annotations of these two types have to be located in to count in this condition: "annotations of the given two types within the window of the matched annotation". However, practically, all annotations of these types are considered that START (first basic token) within the matched range.
>  - Furthermore, the Guide says something about counting annotations, which from my experience isn't quite true: As long as they start with the same basic token, any number of annotations of one type accounts for only one occurrence as far as VOTE is concerned.
> In case my observations are correct, I'd like to suggest changing the Guide to reflect that behaviour.
> I could provide an example if necessary, but I think this gets the point across just fine.
> Best regards,
>  Michael
