General: This document contains several minor editorial item that should be fixed:

  1. Contents - Change spelling of "specifiation" to "specification" in H.4 title. This error also occurs in the actual subclause title.
  2. H.2.1 Tags - Change "include" to "includes" in "The structure of this Annex include".
  3. H2.2.2.5.2 Highlighted text - Change "propotional" to "proportional".
  4. H2.2.2.5.3 This - Change "itsself" to "itself".

There seem to be some problems regarding the localization of xslt pages proposed in this section. For instance in stdex.xsl, the terms "Contents", "Warning", "Footnotes", "Annex" remain in English although the document language is French while other terms like "Bibliography", "Scope" have well been translated.

This appears clearly in the page code and one may also note this in the on-line example of the address:

http://tr9573amd.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/tr9573amd/xml/H.3/c016670f-stdex-text.xml?revision=1.5

Is this a bug or a feature?

H.2.1 Tags

Table H1 s/metedata/metadata/

Te

reference to element "pre" is missing in the table

 

reference to element "notation-definition" is missing in the table or may be it should be replaced by 'notation-list' later in the document

 

reference to element "index" is missing in the table

 

table and figure are referenced as "floating element" and later referenced as "block components"

 

Why are "table, tabtitle, tgroup, colspec, thead, tbody, tfoot, row, entry, tabnote" put into relation with only "table"

 

Why are nothing in relation with "tabular, tabtitle, tgroup, colspec, thead, tbody, tfoot, row, entry, tabnote"

 

Please add at least reference to element name used later in this document ('firstterm', 'strong', 'ref')

 

H2.2.1.1

In block components

Te

Please define what are "list" and "list item" about ?

 

s/notation- list/notation-list/

s/notation- item/notation-item/

s/notation- definition/notation-definition/

 

H2.2.2.1.1

Standard Document (<document>)

Te

'conf' is used but in the first table (and the rest of the document),

but 'conformance' is defined

 

The graphical representation seems to not be in synch with the Relax

NG Compact schema

 

Please use 'block.content' instead of 'block' in the graphical

representation of the schema (since no element has the name block)

 

H2.2.2.1.5 H2.2.2.1.6

Warning (<warning>) & Scope (<scope>) and following

Te

Even if the content model is the same, please repeat the level 'c) Attribute'

 

H2.2.2.4.1

Table (<table>)

Te

Nothing is said about the @pgwide attribute. Please synchronize

 

H2.2.2.5.4

Internal cross-references (<Xref>, <xref>)

Te

The graphic shows an @to and text is speaking of a refid attribute.

Please synchronize

 

 

H2.2.2.5.5

IArtwork graphics (<artwork>)

Te

> This element contains many attributes and nothing is said about them

 

H2.2.2.6

Table formatted component

Te

Why still using MIL-M-28001B (26 June 1993) and not OASIS CALS ?

 

H2.2.2.6.2

Elements group of tabular (<tgroup>)

Te

The @align attribute should be able to have the value ('char') (idem in the rest of the document)

 

H2.2.2.7.2

Title data (<title>)

Te

Even if we know @langcode can only be English or French, for the

moment, please use ISO 639

Editorial comment

H.5 will not be essential for authoring structure and style specification.

United Kingdom

General; Section H.5 - Until the final clause H.5 is completed it is unclear what the role of this clause is. Why is "using 9573-11 2nd.ed" deemed to be a relevant part of the clause title when the whole amendment applies to the 2nd edition?
