Re: [dita-comment] allow <appendix> in <part> for DITA 2.0?

Hi Chris,

I advise my clients to use <appendices> as the equivalent to <part> to group appendixes in. Would that work for you?

 

Best,

Dawn

Hi all,

 

Could you please consider allowing <appendix> inside <part> in a <bookmap> in DITA 2.0?

 

<part href="">

<appendix href="">

<appendix href="">

...

</part>

<part href="">

<appendix href="">

<appendix href="">

...

</part>

 

Context: We are deciding whether to migrate from structured FrameMaker (~50 writers, ~200 books). Some of our larger FrameMaker books organize appendixes this way. This DITA enhancement would be timely.

 

Thanks!
