Ad 1: Ordering of articles within an issue is based on the snnn-numbering. To achieve a listing with a new article at the top of the listing, a descending numbering needs to be applied, starting with s999 in the name of the xml- and pdf-file. The snnn-string in the filename is internal used only and not visible at http:// brill.com:
Article 1: <issn>_<vol>_<issue>_s999.xml / pdf
Article 2: <issn>_<vol>_<issue>_s998.xml / pdf
Article 3: <issn>_<vol>_<issue>_s997.xml / pdf
Etc. (over 999 articles in a volume/issue are not expected)
