[Peter Jones <peterj@wrox.com>]

ditto, why do I need baseNames on my occurrences? they should be linked to
the relevant topic name by scope, no?

sorry, missed the scope tag out.
still don't get why the baseName though.

Why does associateTopic need a baseName ?
is that an error?

this excerpt validates in my XML editor 

     <association>
	   <baseName>
		  <scope>
		    <topicRef/>
		  </scope>
		  <baseNameString>myBigAssoc</baseNameString>
		</baseName>
		<associateTopic>
		  <instanceOf>
		    <topicRef/>
		  </instanceOf>
		  <scope>
		    <topicRef/>
		  </scope>
		  <baseName>
		    <baseNameString>MyAssociatedTopic</baseNameString>   <!
-- ???? -->
		  </baseName>
		  <topicRef/>
		</associateTopic>
	 </association>

I would like to propose to the syntax group that the values for referent on
topicRef
cf
a. the <topic> is regarded as indicative of the subject,
          which means that the referenced <topic>'s subject is
          the same as the referring <topic>'s subject, so a
          single topic node should result from processing them.
          (referent="describesSubject")

       b. the <topic> is regarded as a topic node, which means
          that the subject of the containing topic is a node in
          a topic map. (referent="isSubject")

be changed  to 

a. "isTopic"
b. "aboutTopic"

DTD)


Ladeees and Jah-entelmen,

We're proud to announce posting of a prototype XTM DTD (labeled "0.7") 
prior to the Dallas meeting. While the <mergemap> element was a bit 
rushed, the rest of the DTD represents the fair consensus of opinion 
reached during *many* hours of teleconference deliberations last week
between Steve Newcomb, Michel Biezunski, Sam Hunting and myself. I 
know the four of us are extremely proud of this accomplishment heading
into Dallas. We all learned a great deal during these discussions, and
I feel I actually understand this stuff (!) for the first time.

We hope to make some minor tweaks to the comments and <mergemap> elements
and attributes prior to the meeting, so if there's a weak point it's there.

Enjoy.
