Re: [dita-techcomm] Feedback about allowing <data> and <data-about> in <steps> elements

Guys, I'll try to call in tomorrow. I
      hope you can add this item to the agenda, as it will come up on
      the TC agenda shortly.

      Hi, members of the TechComm subcommittee:

      

      I'm reading stage-2 proposal #13105: Allow <data> in lists.
      As written, it will add the <data> and <data-about>
      elements to the content model for the following elements:

      
        
task/choices

        
task/steps

        
task/steps-unordered

        
task/substeps

      
      
Is this desirable? I'm not sure that it is, especially if the
        use case for the proposal is primarily to capture details about
        a legacy list, such as the numbering type and initial number. (I
        like the very sparse and restrictive content model for task ...)

      

      
You can read the proposal here:

Let me know what you think, and whether you can think of use
        cases that require <data> and <data-about> in the
        various <steps> elements.
