RE: [dita] Clarrification of @href/@keyref on <data> element

["Chris Nitchie" <chris.nitchie@oberontech.com>]

I always assumed the silence on that point was intentional. Since <dita> is
primarily intended as a basis for specialization, and is ignored by default,
I always thought the implications for @href on a <data> specialization
should be up to whoever was developing the tools to process that
specialization.

Subject: [dita] Clarrification of @href/@keyref on <data> element

The 1.2 reference entry for <data> says for the @href attribute:

"Provides a reference to a resource. See The href attribute for detailed
information on supported values and processing implications."

However, I can't find any discussion of what it actually means to have
<data> associated with a resource.

Do we say anywhere?

If not, what is the intended implication? Is the associated resource the
metadata value?

Thanks,

Eliot
