> We need a way to generate a DITA file for the Reference Manual from the
> messages themselves, so that when new messages are added or changes are made,
> they are propogated to the documentation. The requirements are:
> - Some way of keeping metadata for the DITA file (parameter values, user
> response, explanation) in comments within the messages file, or perhaps using
> an XML document to store the data and the strings?
> - A script or xsl transform that reads the messages and generates the DITA
> file, adding the metadata where necessary.
> - A script to do a one-time conversion of the DITA file to the messages file
> (whether it be the current method of storing message plus comments or an XML
> file) so that existing messages will be in the new format. Then, any new
> messages must follow the format.
