    Subject: info on citation item


    Markus Hoenicka asked me to forward this information to 
    the Committee for our Wednesday meeting.
    
    From: "Markus Hoenicka" <markus.hoenicka@mhoenicka.de>

    Subject: citation proposal
    
    Hi Bob,
    
    this is the latest and greatest version of our citation proposal,
    which I ask you to distribute to the participants of the upcoming
    DocBook TC meeting.

    Improved citation support in DocBook
    ====================================
    
    [This proposal is an updated version of the one discussed at the
    DocBook TC meeting in November. The proposal was condensed
    considerably based on the suggestions during the meeting.]
    
    Changes to the previous version:
    - boiled down to the bare bones: addition of <biblioref>
    - use end instead of stop as an attribute to ease tab completion
    
    
    Addition of a new <biblioref> element
    --------------------------------------------------------
    
    Example:
    
    <citation><biblioref linkend="Miller1999" unit="chapter"
    start="2" /></citation>
    
    Code required:
    Addition of elements with the following content models and attributes:
    
    <!ELEMENT biblioref - - EMPTY >
    <!ATTLIST biblioref linkend IDREF #REQUIRED
                        endterm IDREF #IMPLIED
                        unit NMTOKEN #IMPLIED
                        start NMTOKEN #IMPLIED
                        end NMTOKEN #IMPLIED
                        renderas (full|author|year|title) #IMPLIED
    >
    
    Inclusion of <biblioref> wherever <xref> is allowed
    
    Optional: allow NMTOKENS in the start attribute to accommodate lists
    of pages, like in "<biblioref linkend="Miller1999" unit="pages"
    start="34-36 40-44" />

    We'd greatly appreciate if the TC could discuss this proposal in the
    next meeting.
    
    regards,
    Markus
