Hi Christian, > I guess the motivation (preferably in "Why do this") could be more > explicit.

I guess there is no harm repeating the same paragraph if the reason is the same for both cases. > Quote> Make also sure the its:rules element is available somewhere in > Quote> your documents > > We may want to reuse the wording for "its:rules" from Best Practice 8 > (which amongst others indicates that we can have file-external rules). So something like this?: It is also recommended to define the its:rules element in your DTD or schema, for example in a header if there is one. The its:rules element provides access to the its:termRule element which can be used to override terminology-related information globally. > Quote> this will allow authors to override terminology-related > information at the element level. > > In case the native/host vocabulary does not have a means to specifying > terms, "its:term" will not only serve the purpose of overriding but of > specifying. How about: "this will allow authors to override or define terminology-related ..." Thanks -yves
