Hello,
I just have a little comment on 8.Publishing Subcommittee report ... Scott suggests everyone read it and provide comments.
With an external view (no knowledge of publishing) I wondered what is the real motivation to have 3 distinct elements (dialogue, drama, poetry) because they seem to have the same goal "speeches" and also have the same xml definition in the spec (http://docs.oasis-open.org/docbook/specs/publishers-1.0-spec-cd-01.pdf)
If the definition is the same, isn't the role attribute sufficient within a single dialogue element?
Or is it a choice made to simplify the stylesheet work as these elements really need a different printing layout?
Best regards,
Cédric,
that they are quite different in some ways, particularly if certain aspects of the visual
presentation of the source is required to be captured.
regards
