Subject: Documentation for Translation Subcommittee items


The following translation-related changes to the DITA 1.1 spec are required:

1. xml-lang attribute documentation needs to be updated according to the SC
proposal. In addition, the conref documentation needs to be updated to
describe its expected behavior when xml-lang on the target and source
fragments differ. Similarly, map element documentation must be updated to
mention that xml-lang set on a referenced topic overrides any value set on
the map (see SC proposal for details).

2. translate attribute to be added as a universal attribute and documented
with the other universal attributes. The SC proposal has all the text that
needs to be added to the documentation. In addition, the draft-comment and
required-cleanup elements must explicitly set translate="no" and their
documentation must be updated to explain this. Ensure our description of the
translate attribute is in sync with the ITS definition.

3. dir attribute to be added as universal attribute and documented with the
other universal attributes (SC proposal has everything we need to say).



Best Regards,
Gershon
