Re: [dita-comment] Description of Multimedia
Hi Julio,

Thanks for the comment. In this case, I think it's better to leave the examples as is. The text in question is:
"The <foreign> element enables authors to include media within topic content, for example, SVG graphics, MathML equations, and so on."

The <foreign> element is what enables those domains to include SVG and MathML with DITA 1.3. I think it's better for this section to give an example of <foreign> that is needed, already exists, and can be used by anybody with 1.3, rather than picking some other vocabulary that could only be used after creating a new specialization.

In section 2.2.1.7, the description of multimedia uses SVG and MathML as examples of media which the <foreign> element includes. As DITA 1.3 includes these domains, it would be better to find other examples for this subsection.
