RE: [All] domain data category section proposal, please review

Hi Felix, Dave, all,

Sorry, one more question related to the implementation of Domain:

I was looking for example and run into this DocBook one:

<article xmlns='http://docbook.org/ns/docbook'>
 <info>
  <title>Example of subjectset</title>
  <subjectset scheme="libraryofcongress">
   <subject>
    <subjectterm>Electronic Publishing</subjectterm>
   </subject>
   <subject>
    <subjectterm>SGML (Computer program language)</subjectterm>
   </subject>
  </subjectset>
 </info>
 <para>Text of the document</para>
</article>

Where they explain that the //subjectset/subjectterm element indicates the DC subject (so it falls into our domain data category). See http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/publishers/5.1b3/en/html/ch02.html#ch-gsxml.3.8

As you can see, there are actually two entries in the example, so two domains.
The question is: Can we have more than one domain associated with a content?

Just wondering what the implications are for the tools downstream like MT.

If the answer is 'no'. Then how do we know which one to use? We just leave that decision to the author (i.e. s/he is responsible to provide only a mapping to a single entry per document)?

Or do we provide some kind of default behavior, like: the first or last one wins?

Thanks,
-yves
