Where do you see <p>, <ul>,
and <simpletable>? I thought phrase-level content was coming into
shortdesc, but I didn't think block-level content was coming in.

[dita] inline elements in dita maps
I just noticed something about the DITA 1.1 content
models
for maps.
In general DITA maps contain very little inline text or
inline elements since most of the information in the map
comes from the topicref, topichead, topicgroup, and reltable
elements and attributes. But you can enter inline text and
elements in the topicmeta section.
With DITA 1.0 the content model for this inline information
was quite limited. With DITA 1.1 the content model has been
relaxed so that pretty much whatever would be legal as inline
information in a DITA topic is now also legal in a DITA map.
Some of the things that are now legal in DITA maps include
<image>, <p>, <ol>, <ul>, <xref>, and simple
tables.
I can live with this, I just want to make sure this is a
deliberate change and not an unintended consequence of
some other decision.
Comments?
