Hello,
I posted a question on dita-users that is related to our thinking on how to manage our parametric data:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/dita-users/message/23153
We are considering the possibility (among others) of storing our dictionary in DITA, using DITA reuse techniques to inject symbols and XML schemas to validate the entered values in data sheets, for instance.
As you may have faced similar challenges, you are more than welcome to react on the thread.
Best regards,
