Re: [dita] RE: Breaking 'Technical Content' specializations into two groups
I like this idea, too, although I do think it will require quibbling. E.g., we could start with in which partitions you've put MathML and SVG.

I like this approach, primarily because it corrals the technology specializations. Is there a more descriptive term for the more general modules? âUtilityâ seems ambiguous. or perhaps thatâs the point.

Subject: [dita] Breaking 'Technical Content' specializations into two groups

Â

*** External email: use caution ***

As I mentioned on the call today, Iâm suggesting that we break out the general-purpose modules currently labeled âTechnical Contentâ from the more industry-specific domains also included in that package. Hereâs
 how Iâd organize it:

Â

General-purpose âutilityâ modules, not particularly bound to any industry, vertical, or classification:

Concept

Reference

Task/General Task/taskreq domain

Glossary-related domains

Bookmap (and/or the new DITA 2.0 bookmap)

Abbreviation domain

Release management domain

Troubleshooting domain

SVG Domain

Â

More specific, technology-related specializations:

Â

Equation domain

Markup and XML Mention domains

MathML domain

Programming domain

Software domain

UI Domain
