* Latest summary of issues:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/200904/msg00074.html (Ogden) 
Action: Robert Anderson to send the final summary to the list.
Robert gave a brief overview; there are three open questions:
1) Do multi-valued attributes override or merge when they cascade from map
to map?
2) While @base and attributes specialized upon @base do not cascade within
maps or topics, it is unclear if @base or a specialization based upon @base
cascades from a map to a topic or not.
	General consensus:  Leave this undefined and let the application choose
what to do. The spec should specify that these attributes do not cascade,
although implementation can choose how to handle it
3) How does @scope behave when cascading from map to map?
	General consensus: It will not cascade, since the scope attribute is
specifying whether the target is available  thus not something that
cascades onto the target.
Action (21 April 2009) : Robert to write up summary based on this
discussion; vote next week.


6. ITEM: Editorial Style (can close contingent on following action) 
Action: Gershon Joseph will follow through on this by setting up the
