Subject: Question about stepsection
Hello - nobody claimed responsibility for the "general task" item at Tuesday's call, so this question goes to the full group. DITA 1.2 defines a new <stepsection> element which goes into <steps> and <steps-unordered>. The expectation is that content in a <stepsection> element will not be numbered together with the other steps. The proposal says that no new behaviors are defined by the general task type proposal itself, but it also says that "specialized processing is required to avoid numbering <stepsection> elements. " http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/26791/IssueNumber12011v1.2rev3.html So the question is - should the spec describe this numbering as a required behavior, or is it optional? Does the language mean only that, should one decide to skip numbering, specialized processing would be required? I think the intent was to make this a required behavior, so if I do not hear otherwise, that's what the spec will say. The latest draft simply asks this question in a draft-comment. Thanks - Robert D Anderson IBM Authoring Tools Development Chief Architect, DITA Open Toolkit (507) 253-8787, T/L 553-8787 (Good Monday & Thursday)
