RE: DITA 1.3 and ITS rules file

Hi Felix,

 

Very nice to have that information.

I wish all XML applications would do something like that.

 

Or better, as you said, it'd be relatively easy to transcribe this into an ITS rules file.

Personally I don't have the time at this point.

 

Maybe it could be a good exercise for a student of Trinity College or Limerick... just a thought.

 

Cheers,

Hi all,

 

DITA 1.3 is currently under review in OASIS. I saw here

 

http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/dita/v1.3/csprd01/part1-base/non-normative/elementsMerged.html

 

that they provide a list of translation related characteristics. It looks like this could be nearly completely transformed into an
ITS rules file. What do people think? Any volunteers?
