Re: [docbook-tc] Request to add effectivity attribute
/ Steve Cogorno <> was heard to say:
[...]
| While I hesitate to add a new attribute, the only alternative is for us to
| cram the word size into the existing attributes:
|
| OS                  Arch
|
| Solaris             SPARCv9
| Solaris-32          SPARCv9-32
| Solaris-64          SPARCv9-64

You wouldn't really need to reflect it in both the OS and Arch
attributes, would you? The OS is Solaris in each case, no?

And (just so I fully understand), do you really need to distinguish
SPARCv9 independent of the 32 or 64 bit flavors?

| If you have any comments on this proposal please let me know.

It seems completely reasonable to me.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
