Re: [docbook-tc] Email ballot: 440667 Affiliation lacks CorpName

/ Michael Smith <smith@xml-doc.org> was heard to say:
| But I have a some questions about the additional attributes:
|
|     classname   (corporation|nonprofit|informal|other)  #IMPLIED
|     otherclass  CDATA                #IMPLIED
|
| 1. Why "classname" and not just "class"?

Oops. That's just a typo.

| 2. What's "otherclass" for?

If you want to identify a class of organization without relying on role.
(e.g. class="other" otherclass="consortium" :-)

| 3. Would it be worthwhile to add "consortium" to the enumerated list
|    of values for classname? (for marking up consortium names like
|    OASIS and W3C/World Wide Web Consortium)

Perhaps, but I don't think I can legitimately make that change in the
middle of a ballot.

                                        Be seeing you,
