I don’t work with the machinery task often but I have a current client who is using it. We noted that it does not include <tasktroubleshooting>. It of course allows for <steptroubleshooting> since that’s part of <step>. Was this an oversight or was there a reason not to have it? Is this whole question irrelevant because we won’t be supporting machinery task moving forward? My understanding is that machinery task (and the L&T domain) DTDs will be updated for 2.0 conformance. So does that mean machinery task will have a 2.0 DTD that allows nested steps? And if we are doing that can we add <tasktroubleshooting>? Or will all this need to be handled as a specialization? Dawn
