[daisy] Daisy Doc Type inheritance

[Franklin de Graaf]

I have given it plenty of thought. I am currently investigating the
possibility of integrating DITA document types into Daisy. DITA supports
inheritance and much more.

DITA stands for "Darwin Information Typing Architecture". Here are some
links for those of you that are interested.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DITA
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-dita1/
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=dita
http://dita-ot.sourceforge.net/

The last link is to a toolkit which has all the XML Schema files and XSL
transformation files that I will be needing.

I have talked to and have met with the Toronto DITA Users Group (Toronto is
where I live.), in particular with the author of the DITA spec who is with
the IBM Toronto Labs.

More news is available for anyone interested in following what I am doing or
possibly to get involved in doing this project.
