I'm with Scott for option 1. Same reasons. But I am torn on my second choice. My instinct says 3 but that's just my gut.

I vote Option 1 for consistency in authoring between full and lightweight. I think the other options differ too much from full DITA and could lead to potential confusion.
Close second for Option 2, as I could see potential use for hazard-statements where the hazard symbol could be contained in a dt and the body of the hazard statement in the dd.
I still prefer Option 1 though.
Thanks and best regards,

We discussed a number of options in our last SC call - feedback/suggestions/votes needed to help us move forward.Option 1: We implement <note>just as in full DITA, but with a subset of potential values - eg caution, warning, danger, trouble, notice, or no type (generic "note") and a constrained content model (maybe just <p>, <ul>, or <ol>)Option 2: We implement <notelist> (or some other name slightly different from <note>) as a specialization of <dl> with a <dlentry> representing a note. The text of the <dlterm> could trigger specialized behaviors (if it's from the short list like caution, warning, etc.) or be passed through as is (if it's not recognized by either default or override processes)Option 3: We implement <note-type>as a specialized phrase element (specialized off of either <ph> or <b>) available in any <p> that turns the <p> into a note. As with the dlentry option, the type of the note would be entered as text that could trigger specialized behaviors if recognized, or be used to apply a custom label.Michael Priestley, Senior Technical Staff Member (STSM)Enterprise Content Technology ://dita.xml.org/blog/michael-priestley
