Folks, I misspoke earlier this week when I suggested that you all could look at the DITA 1.3 spec. You need to look at the draft 2.0 spec, which was revised as part of removing @domains and adding the @specialization attribute.

(I say “ideally,” because I know that resource constraints might prevent us from being able to do this work.) Robert, Eliot, and I are all unhappy with the current content, so I want to open conversation here. Besides asking people to look at this content, I want to ask people “What you think about generalization or talk to people about it, what is most critical?” You can look either at the 1.3 spec or the latest DITA 2.0 draft spec: 1.3: http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/dita/v1.3/errata02/os/complete/part3-all-inclusive/archSpec/base/generalization.html#generalization 2.0: https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=70083&wg_abbrev=dita Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Owner, Eberlein Consulting LLC [email protected] Skype: kriseberlein; voice: +1 (919) 622-1501
