RE: [dita] proposed packaging and doctype shells for DITA 1.2

    A couple more questions:
    


     
    


    Altogether we’ll have five map doctype
shells:
    


     
    


    1.      
Base Map
    


    2.      
Bookmap
    


    3.      
Learning Map (base map
plus the Learning and Training Domain)
    


    4.      
Classification Map #1
    


    5.      
Classification Map #2
    


     
    


    Is this correct?
    


     
    


    Is the only “generic” map
doctype shell the Base Map?
    


     
    


    Do I remember that the Learning and
Training subcommittee wanted a version of the bookmap doctype shell with the
Learning and Training Domain added?

    All of the map doctype shells include the
map-group domain, right?
    


     
    


    Just checking: There are no doctype shells
specific to the Machine Industry, Software and Programming, or Classification, Controlled
Values, and Taxonomies work or to the extent that there are they are included
in the Technical Content collection, right?
    


     
    


    Just checking: Grouping the doctype shells
into three collections (base, tech content, learning and training)
doesn’t imply any changes to the organization of the DITA 1.2
specification documents or does it?
    


     
    


    The current organization of the DITA 1.2
specification documents is: 
    


     
    


      
 
    • DITA 1.2
     Specification Overview
      • 
 
    • DITA 1.2
     Base Architectural Specification
      • 
 
    • DITA 1.2
     Base Language Reference
      • 
 
    • DITA 1.2 Utility Domain Specializations
     Architecture and Language Reference
      • 
 
    • DITA
     1.2 Technical Content Architecture and Language Reference
      • 
 
    • DITA 1.2
     Software and Programming Content Architecture and Language Reference
      • 
 
    • DITA 1.2 Learning and Training Content
     Architecture and Language Reference
      • 
 
    • DITA 1.2 Machine Industry Content Architecture
     and Language Reference
      • 
 
    • DITA
     1.2 Classification, Controlled Values, and Taxonomies Architecture and
     Language Reference

    Assumptions:
    
- need
to keep the legacy shells from 1.1 to avoid breaking existing users
    
-
beyond legacy shells, adding only the bare minimum to exercise each new domain
and structural type
    
-
users will go to the web tool for most combinations (such as tech content with
learning objectives, or tech content without the sw domain)

    
Base
(2 shells): 
    
 
      topic and map plus utility domains
    
Tech
content (11 shells): 
    
 
      topic, concept, task, general task, task with requirements
domain, reference, glossary, ditabase (all incorp. hazard, utility, sw, pr, ui
domains);
    
        bookmap, 2 classification maps 
    
Learning and training (7 shells): 
    
 
      5 l&t topic types, topic with l&t domain, map with
l&t domain
