I think that this proposal is more in shape with glossary that previous one. I can see termdef as sort of "inline glossentry". > I'm still fairly neutral on whether or not to lose 'firstterm'. I don't think that we must remove it. I'm just curious what rationales are behind this element. TDG says: This element [firstterm] marks the first occurrence of a word or term in a given context. I don't know what "context" should mean in this context :-), but if the function of firstterm is to emphasize first occurence of some term there is no need for marking it up in a different way than glossterm. Current processing tools are powerfull enough to infer that we are on the first occurence of some term inside document and that special processing is needed. I would like to see comments on this issue from people who are using firstterm.
