Allow xml:lang and dir on all optional DC elements #2654

Closed mattgarrish closed 1 month ago

mattgarrish commented 1 month ago

This pull request removes the lists of allowed elements from the optional DC definition. It also simplifies the global attribute definitions for xml:lang, dir, and id by referring to the required and optional element sections rather than list out every individual element.

Fixes #2650

I actually don't like having two "Dublin Core" sections at the same level. What if we switched it to:

?

The current text would still make sense this way.

Actually, we could simplify the current text by just linking the parent DC section since it would contain all the definitions.

Yes, that would make sense. The only problem I see is the heading levels for each entry would be even 'deeper'; we will break records in our spec;-) but I guess that is all right...

You got my hopes up, but, alas, no. The OCF reserved files still hold the depth record by a level.

Oh well, we can still work on that 😀

Anyway, for the records, I am fine with the latest changes in https://github.com/w3c/epub-specs/pull/2654/commits/2dab9555b2ecf8198f2639a5468b1ace6e74e2c8. Thanks.
