Hi Birgit,
Right now there is no tool that will generate the DTD/schema from
a specialization template. There are a couple of us working on
this right now, though, and it is a high priority. Other people
need it also.
I think the only way to do it right now is to sort of "follow the
logic" and manually create your schema. Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Michael,
At the last LW call Jan
has presented the LW marketing specialization we are working
on. One comment/question was:
- We might not have used
the correct specialization mechanism. LW DITA supports the
template-based specialization, we did it the “old way”.
And for sure, we didn’t
used the template approach.
Now, I have read again
all mails about the template approach and I thing I
understand it more or less. I could make a template like the
one in http://markmail.org/message/pd4u5kfg44xp5x5c
but I am wondering how I can get/generate the DTD or better
XSD from this. Do I need a special tool and/or scripts?
And yes, I do wonder if
the template approach really is much easier than the “old
way” as used in standard DITA. Maybe an advantage is that
the specialization will not become more complex than the
basic topic and elements.
Kind regards, Birgit
