definition of "publication"

Hi,

I read through scribe at TPAC F2F, and tried to understand/contribute
to what POM wants to achieve.
 # As our EPUB3 viewer also have similar book abstruction layer. 
In the scribe, POM would treat not only EPUB, PDF, etc, but also
images and RDFa. (I missed that part in the F2F)

It makes sense to me, but I think a difinition/consesus of
"what is publication" is needed to discuss further.  

I assume the contents that publication treats are contents at a
time. (e.g. streamed contents from IoT device is not a focus.)

I, for example, think publication is constructed for the below parts: 

- target media information 
  - paged media(PDF, EPUB, etc), web, paper, rounded display, etc
- a container information that holds contents
  - page size(A4, B4, etc), register mark, etc if the tagret media is
    paper
  - fixed/reflow info if the target is EBOOK
  - how ronded if the target is rounded display
- meta information against contents
  - author, created date, updated info, etc 

More buliding block might exist, but the definition/consensus can be
helpful for constructing data set in the IDL implementaiton(using
haxe?).


If I'm writing irrelevance topic, please please let me know.

Best,

Hiroshi/skk
