RE: [dita] clarifying the href attribute in the language reference

[Don Day <dond@us.ibm.com>]

Gotcha, Paul. Today is "perfunctory Friday" for me, and I did not recall
the previous note. We'll add this to the doc updates for 1.2.

Sorry, I should have made it clearer in my original
posting that I meant this clarification to be part
of DITA 1.2, not 1.1.

And I did suggest specific wording in my email at
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/200705/msg00040.html

As far as what is in scope for DITA 1.2, there is
a difference between adding a new feature/enhancement
and correcting/clarifying the standard, and I think
corrections and clarifications are (almost) always in
scope.  Otherwise, someone can just make the issue a
comment during out next review, and that would just
hold us up at a later date in the process.
