I think the content should be clearer
as to its purpose/location (right now no navigational context to show where
it's coming from). But is there a problem with hosting toolkit design discussions
at dita.xml.org? I know the toolkit team made the move explicitly to make
the design discussion more open to community participation, and I think
their motives are good. And they're building it in the right part of the
wiki, ie in the section devoted to the DITA Open Toolkit.
I'd suggest something like "DITA
Open Toolkit Design: Feature xxxx" - plus add a link to the parent
topic at the bottom of the page.

I think this page -- and a similar one for 12017 -- will confuse many
readers. Both refer to specific features that will be part of DITA 1.2.
My guess is that the content of http://dita.xml.org/wiki/12013-design is
about how the Open Toolkit will need to be modified to support these new
features; is there perhaps another more appropriate location for this sort
of content than the Wiki pages for dita.xml.org?
