Hi Michael,
The email from Alan provides no rationale
for the <process>, just shows the syntax. Let me know if any of the
minutes show the rationale or any examples. I’ve written Alan but haven’t
received a response as yet.

[dita] Revised content model options for
#12011 - Generic Task Type
|
|
I
submit this message for possible discussion at today's
(11-December-2007) DITA TC meeting. Below is a
summary of proposed
content models that will support proposal #12011
-- Generic Task Type.
These content models are the result of recent
discussion on the DITA TC
list.
-Alan
-------------
Summary:
- Optional, repeatable <note> allowed before
<cmd>
- <taskbody> allows only a single
<steps> element
- New <process> element to permit
<ol>/<ul> constructions in <taskbody>
Proposed content models:
taskbody:
(prereq?,
context?,
(steps | steps-unordered | process),
result?,
example?,
postreq?)
(Issue: allow <section> before and after
<steps>?)
steps/steps-unordered:
Support <section> between steps:
(section?, step)+
step:
Support optional, repeatable <note> before
cmd:
(note*,
cmd,
(info | substeps | tutorialinfo | stepxmp |
choicetable | choices)*,
stepresult?)
Issue: allow <itemgroup> in <step>?
process:
(section?, (ol | ul))+
Issue: this would allow multiple ol/ul elements.
