Re: [dita] Which stuff goes in what edition?
I would include the machineIndustry task in the technical content
    package. A good number of companies who do not use Learning &
    training use the machine industry task.

I would suggest putting machineIndustry in the
            All-Inclusive edition, since it is for a specific set of
            users and not likely used by a majority. Otherwise, I’m OK
            with the editions as listed.

          

          

          

            

              

                
Thanks and best regards,

          stuff goes in what edition?

        

        

        

        

          
          
          

            

              
I think we are moving towards
                agreement with Chet at OASIS about how we can deliver
                three different DITA editions -- Base, Technical
                Content, and All-Inclusive. On the assumption that that
                will succeed, I've been working on diagrams for the main
                landing page and the three sub-landing pages, meant to
                convey (in the former case) the big picture and (in the
                latter) the big picture plus a sense of "you are here",
                i.e. what's in the specific edition you're currently
                looking at.

              
 

              
In one such diagram I (naively) split
                up the editions like this (via listing the subfolder
                names from the "doctypes" directory):

              
 

              
Base: base

              
Technical Content: base, bookmap,
                machineryIndustry, subjectScheme, technicalContent

              
All-Inclusive: all that plus learning

              
 

              
Kris noted that in DITA 1.2,
                subjectScheme was considered part of Base, but suggested
                that my rearrangement might be a better idea. But this
                is a question for the TC:
                 Which stuff goes into which edition?

              
 

              
For purpose of discussion I suggest
                the above.
