That is something that may need to be worked out in the
interoperability forum, but I think even Norm has lamented in the past
about the decision to use "para" instead of "p"...
I imagine some of the alignment would be more along the HTML/DITA line,
such as:
para = p
itemizedlist = ul
orderedlist = ol
listitem = li
We might also want to propose to that the other standards to adopt some
of the DocBook element names, such as:
emphasis
phrase
trademark
figure
There are probably additional candidates, but I just wanted to propose
the idea. I hadn't seen much discussion along these lines in the
interop forum...

Folks,
just a thought about interoperability between DocBook, DITA and ODF:
do we want to consider changing some of the tag names in V5 to align
some of the more common element names? Some likely candidates I can
think of would include: para, itemizedlist, orderedlist, listitem.
What would they change to? I'm not familiar enough with the the other
DTDs to know.
