Subject: Re: DOCBOOK: [ #440667 ] Affiliation lacks CorpName
/ Gregory Leblanc <gleblanc@linuxweasel.com> was heard to say: | > Yann Dirson notes that affiliation contains orgname and orgdiv but no | > corpname. He goes on to point out that orgname is likely intended to | > be used for the orgname here. | | Your second sentence doesn't pass my English Language parser here, so I | went and read the RFE. A few questions: Uh, yeah, I mean to say something like "He goes on to point out that orgname is likely intended to be used for the corpname here." | What was the rationale for adding corpname? I know longer recall the origin of corpname and the affiliation structures. | Why wasn't corpdiv added at the same time, so that corp* is analgous to | org*? I don't recall. I think we probably ought to deprecate corpname and promote orgname as a replacement for it. | I did look at the archived RFE's, but couldn't find answers to these. I | think that will help clarify what the intent is here, and how things | ought to work out. A lot of the metadata stuff was borrowed from Majour and the whole metadata framework is currently being examined by the TC. Be seeing you, norm -- Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com> | It is a folly to expect men to do http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/ | all that they may reasonably be Chair, DocBook Technical Committee | expected to do.--Archbishop Whately
