[dita] We need a name
space for DITA
1.2
According to Mary McRae, we no longer
need
an overview document; the overview document was necessary ONLY because
we had both an architectural spec and a language spec.
However, Mary says:
"Since there are DTDs and Schemas, the TC must define a namespace.
I highly recommend that the TC define an http namespace and provide a
namespace
document. The namespace document will contain links to the spec, the
schemas
and the dtd files. OASIS requires namespaces to be in the following
format:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/dita/{namespace
name goes here} OR
http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/ns/{namespace
name goes here}"
So what do we want for our namespace name?
FYI, here is a link to the OASIS namespace template:
