Michael, of the templates that have been discussed, are any of them
a reasonably simple exemplar that we should start with? Perhaps we
need to start off with a "should do this" dummy example that does
not yet carry extra requirements that would distract from getting to
a proof point quickly. I seem to recall that parts of the syntax
we'll be parsing may not be expressible as valid or perhaps even
well-formed XML, so we need to get past that hurdle first, for
example.
Also, for the templates that have been discussed, has each one's
final design been documented, or will we need to read the discussion
to arrive at the vetted design? I just don't have a sense of
completion on those discussions. (And if this was covered at
Monday's meeting, I deserve being lashed with wet angle brackets.)

Should we use the new OASIS open repository
process for this work?
Let's us do this as an officially sanctioned
OASIS opensource project at github.
Re inputs/outputs:
- input would be a topic that uses the updated
doctype (with new elems/atts) as described in the email
summary linked below
- output would be (at least initially) a
single-file doctype definition using either DTD syntax, RNG
syntax, or XSD syntax that defines the new specialization and
provides the validation rules for it

Subject: [dita-lightweight-dita] Generating schemas from
templates
Date: Mon, Jan 25, 2016 12:23 PM
Hi Don,
I'm the culprit who volunteered you, I figured you would
be interested. Also involved in this are Tim Grantham and
Carlos Evia. In the meeting Michael P talked about making
the tool that would convert a template to a
specialization, based on the info at the bottom of this
email and especially this thread:
http://markmail.org/message/pd4u5kfg44xp5x5c
Michael wanted XSLT that would run on the template file
and output a specialization. I believe this output
includes a topic and also a schema, and I mentioned making
a RelaxNG schema. But I'm a bit muddy on what the output
would be exactly, please correct me or verify.

My apologies to all; I intended to
meet but had the wrong time in mind. I deserve to have
been volunteered for far worse; this fate looks
acceptable. If anyone captured some insights that would be
helpful, please put those in an email to the under a clear
subject line so that we can discuss the approach (e.g.,
"Generating schemas from templates"). Thanks!

Per our
call today - there's a link below to the draft
specialization architecture.
Mark, Carlos, Tim, and
Don have (been) volunteered to take that email and
implement it:
- adding the required
elements/attributes to the base topic/map DTDs
- creating XSLT to
generate RNG (or DTD, XSD...) from a template topic
(ie any DITA topic, with/without use of the new
template attributes/elements)

- learning and training - analyzed scenarios, proposed
new specializations adapting to lightweight model
- marketing - analyzed scenarios, working towards new
specialization proposals
- software development - analyzed scenarios
- machine industries - analyzed scenarios
Cross-format mappings:
- markdown and HTML5 in progress, need updating
- JSON investigated
- others proposed: PPT, other slide formats, Word
