• Base Map (map plus Utilities and Map Group domains)

 

Technical Content Collection (all topics include hazard, utility, sw, pr, and ui domains):

• Topic
• Concept
• Task
• General Task
• Task with requirements domain
• Reference
• Glossary
• Ditabase
• Map
• Bookmap
• Classification map #1
• Classification map #2

 

Learning and Training Content Collection:

• Learning Assessment
• Learning Content
• Learning Overview
• Learning Plan
• Learning Summary
• Learning Topic (Topic plus the Learning and Training domains added)

Subject: [dita] proposed packaging and doctype shells for DITA 1.2

 

Assumptions:
- need to keep the legacy shells from 1.1 to avoid breaking existing users
- beyond legacy shells, adding only the bare minimum to exercise each new domain and structural type
- users will go to the web tool for most combinations (such as tech content with learning objectives, or tech content without the sw domain)

Base (2 shells):
        topic and map plus utility domains
Tech content (11 shells):
        topic, concept, task, general task, task with requirements domain, reference, glossary, ditabase (all incorp. hazard, utility, sw, pr, ui domains);
        bookmap, 2 classification maps
Learning and training (7 shells):
        5 l&t topic types, topic with l&t domain, map with l&t domain
