Subject: RE: [dita] Definition Handling
Hi Kris Yes, I read the spec a while back on merging. This is a small part of my rough proposal and was mentioned for consistency and is a bit of a sideshow – I would be fine if you split that sideshow off or killed it. It comes from a vague wondering on the idea of a distributed taxonomy where different subjectSchemes add part of the taxonomy. I have not encountered that idea yet (but am open to hearing about it) – as I add pieces to my own taxonomy. I have heard about different taxonomies for different folks around the same subject matter – development uses different terms than sales and I can understand that. But merging in – not so sure. SKOS has a taxonomy mapping layer, but that is an attempt to map between conceptSchemes – like mapping from dev terms to sales terms. http://www.w3.org/TR/skos-reference/#L4307. Anyhow, this should likely be a separate discussion or no discussion from the other points in the proposal. Merging in general, however, is related to enumerationDef merging, or not, which is also under discussion. cheers Jim From: dita@lists.oasis-open.org [mailto:dita@lists.oasis-open.org] On Behalf Of Kristen James Eberlein Jim, I'm only going to comment on the question of subjectScheme "merging." This behavior -- that is, the ability to expand/add subjects to an already-defined subject definition -- is clearly outlined in the DITA 1.2 spec (see the schemeref topic).
