12026 Specialize glossary entry and definition elements

I was wondering if this should be an
extension of the existing glossary topic rather than a new specialization?  Or
perhaps that is what is planned and I just didn’t follow the description
correctly.

Specialize glossary entry and definition elements



 

Hi, Paul:


The original design for the glossary specialization includes optional elements
for linguistic concerns (the part of speech, etc) and semantic concerns (the
scope of the sense, etc). We simplified to cover only publishing concerns in
support of book enablement for DITA 1.1; however, that was with the expectation
that we would revisit the ancillary concerns in DITA 1.2 so that adopters who
need to manage those aspects of their content vocabulary can but others don't
have to.



Hoping that clarifies,



Erik Hennum
