Subject: Re: [dita] Which stuff goes in what edition?


Also, the decision about what belongs in base, technical content, and the "big" package was made in the 1.2 time frame. I'm not adverse to reconsidering it, but we need to start from the baseline of what the TC previously agreed to.

I would include the machineIndustry task in the technical content package. A good number of companies who do not use Learning & training use the machine industry task.

I would suggest putting machineIndustry in the All-Inclusive edition, since it is for a specific set of users and not likely used by a majority. Otherwise, I’m OK with the editions as listed.

Subject: [dita] Which stuff goes in what edition?

I think we are moving towards agreement with Chet at OASIS about how we can deliver three different DITA editions -- Base, Technical Content, and All-Inclusive. On the assumption that that will succeed, I've been working on diagrams for the main landing page and the three sub-landing pages, meant to convey (in the former case) the big picture and (in the latter) the big picture plus a sense of "you are here", i.e. what's in the specific edition you're currently looking at.

 

In one such diagram I (naively) split up the editions like this (via listing the subfolder names from the "doctypes" directory):

 

Base: base

Technical Content: base, bookmap, machineryIndustry, subjectScheme, technicalContent

All-Inclusive: all that plus learning

 

Kris noted that in DITA 1.2, subjectScheme was considered part of Base, but suggested that my rearrangement might be a better idea. But this is a question for the TC:  Which stuff goes into which edition?

 

For purpose of discussion I suggest the above.
