RE: [docbook-tc] DocBook Technical Committee Meeting Agenda: 15June 2011

I must give my regrets for this month's meeting, as a mandatory training session has been scheduled directly opposite this meeting (and I suspect you all will be having more fun).

I had completed my action item prior to the previous meeting, however there was little discussion on the mailing lists.  I have attached my original message and Norm's response to it and my response to him.  Norm and I did discuss the issues briefly during the second attempt at last month's meeting and resolved that using the element name "description" instead of "manifesttext" would be preferable and that supporting namespaces in the format attribute is something we should probably wait to implement until it is requested, since you could include something to indicate the namespace in the tokens that were used (dita.webhelp and db.webhelp for the DITA and DocBook versions of Web help).  With these changes, I think that updating the schema to deal with the issues listed in the original message would bring it into compliance with what we have discussed.

Regards,
Larry Rowland
