Re: [dita] Naming the big edition

[Éric Sirois <eric.sirois@ixiasoft.com>]

For base, is that basetopic.dtd and basemap.dtd or map.dtd and topic.dtd?  Yes, we have basetopic and basemap which is really just the stuff that's in the base folder.

Hi everyone,

 

It is time to make a final decision regarding what to call the edition of DITA 1.3 that will contain everything. As a reminder, we are aiming to produce three "editions" that are proper subsets of each other:

 

1. Base -- map and topic

2. Technical Content -- Base plus all the tech comm stuff

3. ___?___ -- Technical Content plus Learning & Training

 

If you care about this naming issue, speak up now for your favourite among the following names that have been suggested and/or casually used to date (sans kitchen sink references because we're being all serious now):

 

- All-inclusive

- Complete

- Comprehensive

- Full

- Omnibus

 

(If there was another suggestion that I missed, please drop it into the mix.)

 

Failure to vote will be construed as implicit support for what Nancy and I have both agreed is our own favourite: "All-inclusive". I.e., if nobody says anything, we're going to go ahead and keep the one that we are already using as a placeholder in our draft docs!
