Re: [dita] Numbering of Proposals

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

Simple point-based subclassing works for me:

12047.a
12047.b
12047.c

or even a descriptive tag:

12047.mapref_core
12047.name_of_one_issue
12047.name_of_other_issue

I don't see why either of these would not work fine for our current
process. I don't anticipate any sorting based on number, but at least if we
keep the base number, we know something of the heritage of the spinoffs.

I'm working on writing up proposals for some of the issues for which I
am champion of record.

How should I number proposals? For example, issue 12047 (add mapref,
etc. to mapgroup) should really be broken out into at least three
separate proposals. How should I number them?

Thanks,

E.
