[OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (EMFW-17) DE 2.0 Isuspect the XLink feature will solve the problem about how to tie related content objects &descriptions together, but what we have here as description is both repetitive (almost-the-same paragraph many times in Data Dictionary Comments) & opaque.

Martena Gooch commented on EMFW-17:
-----------------------------------

Add to the specification a section 1.3.5 "Linking Content Objects and other DE Components" and provide a better explanation of the linking mechanism. Then provide a simple statement in the comments of each item with XLink attributes that "This element can be the source or destination for a link. See Section 1.3.5."

> I suspect the XLink feature will solve the problem about how to tie related content objects & descriptions together, but what we have here as description is both repetitive (almost-the-same paragraph many times in Data Dictionary Comments) and opaque.  How about just having a separate section, that gives actual examples of how, say, 3 EDXL-embedded items can be grouped with this mechanism?
