DOCBOOK-APPS: othercredit in sdocbook

This is in regard to The Definitive Guide for Simplified DocBook.

The docs for <othercredit> at

 http://www.docbook.org/tdg/simple/en/html/othercredit.html

have an example that shows a <contrib> being used, but that element does not 
exist in Simplified DocBook.

Also, under Future Changes it says <affiliation> is going away.
Should that message still be in there?

Is there a way to indicate the type of contributor that you are using
<othercredit> to identify? Would that be a good use for the role attribute?

On another note, are there any guidelines regarding whitespace in role
attributes? For example, is role="foo-bar" preferred over role="foo bar"
for any reason?
