Sorry - just checking, based on the reliance on
imaginary cases I was seeing.


I'll be more assiduous about monitoring the list.

  There maybe a misunderstanding here. I
would
guess about a third of the TC consists of real users or represent
groups
of real users. I'm in both categories myself.


  We've also had relatively detailed
discussions
of conditional processing use cases on the dita-users list, which I
follow
closely (I recommend you do the same). The scoped attribute value
proposal
in particular came out of some of Deborah's use cases, but
unfortunately
was deemed out of scope for 1.1 since it hadn't been discussed in
detail
on the TC yet.
