Subject: Marking up corporate bodies address, division, etc. in corpauthor
Hello list, We have the need to clearly identify the name, the abbreviation, the division and the address of corporate bodies which are corpauthors and contractsponsors of books. Example: orgname: World Wide Web Consortium orgabbrev: W3C orgdiv: QA address (pob): xxx address (city): xxx etc. At the moment there seems to be a lack of markup in corpauthor, corpcredit, contractsponsor and confsponsor to clearly set this information. Have some people face the same needs, and how have they marked up such data? Since the next DocBook Technical Committee Meeting is very close (Dec 15th) I've also filled a RFE: Add address, orgname, orgdiv, orgabbrev to corpauthor, corpcredit, contractsponsor, confsponsor. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1084491&group_id=21935&atid=384107 Add address, orgname, orgdiv, orgabbrev to corpauthor, corpcredit, contractsponsor, confsponsor. Just like author, editor and publisher have address, it would be very useful to have address for corpauthor, corpcredit, contractsponsor, consponsor. Having an address element is the most needed structuring element but adding an address element calls to add other structuring elements such as orgname and orgdiv. Adding an orgabbrev would be a nice extra. Propositions ========= corpauthor ::= (#PCDATA|orgname|orgdiv|orgabbrev|address|link|olink|ulink|emphasis|trademark|replaceable|remark| subscript|superscript|inlinegraphic|inlinemediaobject|indexterm)* corpcredit ::= (#PCDATA|orgname|orgdiv|orgabbrev|address|link|olink|ulink|emphasis|trademark|replaceable|remark| subscript|superscript|inlinegraphic|inlinemediaobject|indexterm)* contractsponsor ::= (#PCDATA|orgname|orgdiv|orgabbrev|address|link|olink|ulink|emphasis|trademark|replaceable|remark| subscript|superscript|inlinegraphic|inlinemediaobject|indexterm)* confsponsor ::= (#PCDATA|orgname|orgdiv|orgabbrev|address|link|olink|ulink|emphasis|trademark|replaceable|remark| subscript|superscript|inlinegraphic|inlinemediaobject|indexterm)* Rationale and Use Case: a. The proposed change is within the scope of the TC's charter. b. The proposed change is consistent with the existing DocBook model, especially with the author and editor elements. Actually the current situation is not consistent at the moment with what is done in the author element. The proposed change does not break anything, is backward compatible and only allows more flexibility. c. The proposed change is beneficial to a wide community of users, especially corp authors and authors from administrations where the corporate bodies needs to be clearly identified and their division and address semantically marked up.
