I cannot really review this document, as I have been too
        involved in working on it at various points in time.

      
However, here are things that I think it lacks:

      
        
Grammar files for XDITA: What will the TC provide? DTD only?
          XSD and RNG?

        
What are rules and conventions for specializing XDITA?

        
An overview of how the DTDs were constructed:

        
          
The fact that they do not follow the rules as laid out in
            the DITA 1.3 spec -- and why

          
They fact that they could be derived from DITA 1.3 using
            the rules laid out in the DITA spec

        
      
      
        
There is a topic about content reuse that covers the DITA
          1.3 reuse mechanisms that LwDITA supports and those that it
          does not, but nothing that mentiona linking. Does LwDITA
          support all the linking and addressing mechanism that does
          DITA 1.3? Robert and I went looking to see whether keyref is
          available on <xref> and <image>; it is.

        

        
A appendix topic that contains a table that compares
          functionality in LwDITA versus functionality in DITA 1.3.

      
      
Other comments might follow.
