Subject: RE: [dita] Cascading of xml:lang attribute

Good points Paul and Bruce. Latest version:

"The @xml:lang attribute specifies the language (and optionally the locale) of the element content. The @xml:lang attribute applies to all attributes and content of the element where it is specified, unless it is overridden with @xml:lang on another element within that content.  If the @xml:lang attribute on the document (outermost) element  of a map or of a top-level topic has no value, the processor should assume a default value. The default value of the processor may be either fixed, configurable, or derived from the content itself, such as the @xml:lang attribute on the primary map file. As the default value of a processor may be fixed, it is strongly recommended that the @xml:lang attribute be set on each map and top-level topic."

Cheers,
Su-Laine
