For the final table of 1.2 items, with links to the final version of each proposal, see the Implementation Status page for DITA 1.2. |
1.2 tracking information of possible historical interest
The following table lists the items for consideration as part of the DITA 1.2 release.
This is the previous proposal template in DITA format. This template should be used for proposals, along with a new "text for the standard" section to make it easier to update the specifications.
The 'Priority' column includes the priority rankings. Priorities are defined as follows:
A - Must have / Critical
B - Nice to have (unused for the first pass)
C - Can wait till future release (unused for the first pass)
D - Simple/quick fix
X - No priority assigned (use for new items before TC agrees on priority)
Priorities from each member are listed in the table with initials. There is a key below the table. NOTE: hitting enter for a newline within a table will break the table formatting, in both GUI and text mode. When you need a newline, in each mode, type space, followed by the 6 characters [ [ B R ] ]
Items removed from the candidate list for 1.2 should be moved to the 1.3 list. By starting that list now, we should avoid losing any moved or new requirements when it comes time for 1.3.
