Re: [dita-lightweight-dita] L&T dependency on DITA 1.2
Hi Don -

I think the key area here is in the
content models for the question-answer interactions.

Specifically, for DITA 1.2, we limited
the content in most places to ph.cnt. For example, see lcQuestionBase.content
in learningInteractionBaseDomain.mod.

For DITA 1.3, we wanted to expand those
content models to allow multiple block elements, and used div.cnt instead
of ph.cnt.

For compatibility, the need to keep
the DITA 1.2 models in place meant we added a parallel set of "learning2"
elements with the div.cnt content models in learningInteractionBase2Domain
and learning2Domain.mod. See lcQuestionBase2, lcTrueFalse2, etc.

Seeing how these question-answer interactions
are among the most widely-used features of the L&T specialization,
we have an interesting challenge in how to support them in the LW DITA
model.

John

L&T dependency on DITA 1.2

John, can you remind us again of what was the DITA 1.2
feature that created the hard dependency on DITA 1.2 for supporting the
L&T specializations? I wonder if it portends something we may need
to support in a lighter way if we are to reimplement L&T on the lighter
LwD base.
