FYI: [dita-users] Othermeta inheritance

[Kristen James Eberlein <kris@eberleinconsulting.com>]

Forwarding from DITA users. AFAIK, the <othermeta> element has never cascaded, not in any DITA 1.x release. (I do believe that for a while DITA-OT implemented cascading for <othermeta>...)

Best,
Kris

Hello DITA experts!

I have a client who extensively uses <othermeta> at the map level and expects to see it cascaded for topics, or even submaps. It seems that it was possible with DITA 1.1. However, according to this page, it isn't anymore with the 1.3:
https://www.oxygenxml.com/dita/1.3/spec ... adata.html

Would there be any weak to make it work nonetheless?

Additionaly, I saw that the lockmeta attribute won't be available in DITA 2.0. I wonder if a replacement solution will exist?
Thanks for any feedback or advice!
