All in all, what do you think about this proposal:
- extend the xdoc DTD with an include element so that includes can be used out
of the box without breaking the DTD
We have a policy to only include new elements to the DTD that
are in line with XHTML2.
One of the reasons for moving to XHTML2 is that it is extensible through
its modules, somewhat similar to what Erik was describing in this post.
Erik, if you can develop your extension ideas in line with the extension
mechanisms in XHTML2 I think you will find us much more welcoming of
your ideas ;-)
I am concerned about adding extra layers of processing to meet a small need.
Ross' idea about the internal plugin might suit.
I don't know about this mechanism because I am relatively new to
Forrest. Is this a 0.8 feature?
It was a new feature in 0.7. See
http://forrest.apache.org/pluginDocs/plugins_0_70/usingPlugins.html
Perhaps the extension mechanism I outlined above would be useful as an
extension mechanism for documents.
Yes, but only if we can make it fit within the XHTML2 extension
mechanism. Note that using a plugin in Forrest and a module in the
schema should address the concerns you raise with respect to source
resolution (i.e. the plugin extends the sitemap to deal with the new
schemas).
