Issue raised against: representing_documents

OASIS referencing_documents (C037) is going to be deleted. Representing_documents (C005/rep_doc) includes much more than actually needed. Therefore a new template should be created in C005 to represent document when referenced.

Proposal: NEW template represent_document_without_view (rep_doc_w_out_view), containing Document and Document_version with identifiers on both and optional classification on Document without document_assignment.

Naming consideration: Is it possible to name the template referencing_document_version (ref_doc_vers) instead of rep_doc_w_out_view?

It should be possible to identify a type of document by classification.

Proposal: Add optional classification to Document for all templates related to representing_document.

It should be possible to assign a document, independent of its views, to product and support data.

Proposal: NEW template assigning_referenced_document (asg_ref_doc), containing Document and Document_version with identifiers on both and optional classification on Document + Document_assignment with classification.

Note: differs from DVN-15 because of document_assignment.

It is necessary to reference parts of a document content, e.g. chapter, section, table, figure, page number etc. Entity Partial_document_assignment is missing from OASIS C005.

Proposal part1: The entity Partial_document_assignment must be added to C005 or in a new capability.

Proposal part2: NEW template Assigning_partial_document (asg_partial_doc), consisting of Partial_document_assignment with classification + Document and Document_version with identifiers on both and optional classification on Document (ref to new template DNV-15).

Document properties are handled by the assigning_document_properties capability and is refered to within the section document properties.

Diagrams were drawn prior to decision to use External_class. Will be removed/updated.

They can be represented as a number of document_definitions which are defined against a particular document_version according to the chapters/sections required for the document. Each definition has an .id (labeled through reference data) which is used to provide the section/chapter number. Sequential sections/chapters can be represented through the document_definition_relationship mechanism (ref data in this case would be "sequential". For the case where a chapter needs to be broken down into separate sub-sections, or perhaps by pages, "decomposition" should be used. This can be used to provide the logical structure of a document. The name of each section/chapter can also be (optionally) provided through reference data, plus any additional context information as additional text. In addition, each definition may be represented as individual files (digital files if using digital documents, else hardcopy components of physical_documents). If the different chapters/section/pages etc.. are defined in separate files, then a single document_definition can be used but with many component files. The different sections can then be related through the use of the file_relationship entity using the "sequential" or "decomposition" reference data as required.

Template parameters have now been updated. Figures and path added.
