Paul, I had the same reaction, so I downloaded the files and looked at the readme and commentary.

 

What I think this is – and Gershon, please correct me if I am wrong – is exploratory work in preparation of formal DITA 1.3 proposals to the TC regarding enhancements to the technical content piece regarding troubleshooting.

Best regards,

Kris

I'm not clear on just what we're talking about here.

 

Is this just a private experiment, or are you suggesting official changes to the DITA 1.2 DTDs?

Submitter's message
Hi all,

I have updated the DITA 1.2 DTDs to add the troubleshooting functionality to address Cisco use cases 1, 2, and 5 and Avaya's use case 2. I was unable to create a specialization for this without creating an all-new task topic type -- I wanted to make the needed functionality available integrated with the existing kit, so hacking the existing DTDs was the approach I chose in the end (after trying various things via specialization for a full day...).

Please read the README.txt file in the root folder of the zip. I have also included a sample task I used to develop with, and a reference of the changes I made.

At this time I have not provided rendering stylesheets. To be honest, how these new elements are rendered are out of our scope anyway (though we certainly can make non-normative recommendations if the SC feels the need to do so).

Please report any bugs or issues to me.

Best wishes for the new year!

Cheers,
Gershon
