I'll have a look - this does seem to be the kind of thing I'm thinking

I think that actually we might find that RDA looked much simpler (and it
could hardly look more complex) if we did manage to express it as a DSP
plus DC-Text representation plus usage guidelines. Clearly it would also
allow us to take advantage of the vocab lists you have already created
and integrate them back into the documentation
To some extent, the Online RDA product is doing some of this. It
re-organizes the RDA text using linking, and I will be very interested
to see how that works. It also has the capability (I believe) to use the
vocabulary lists and elements that we've defined. I don't think the
initial version will actually implement this, but I don't know for sure.
