Subject: RE: [dita] Complexity of bookmap content model

A consequence of the model you propose is that there is nothing to force appendices to appear at the end of the book. > -----Original Message----- > From: Patricia.Gee-Best@Sun.COM [mailto:Patricia.Gee-Best@Sun.COM] > Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 12:45 PM > To: Robert D Anderson > Cc: Patricia.Gee-Best@Sun.COM; JoAnn Hackos; > dita@lists.oasis-open.org; Paul Prescod > Subject: Re: [dita] Complexity of bookmap content model > > Robert, et al: > > Two items I would like to propose. > > 1.
