------------------------------------------
Summary: Add doc page for dfdlx extension features
Key: DAFFODIL-2179
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2179
Project: Daffodil
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Reporter: Michael Beckerle
Daffodil has numerous dfdlx features.
These do have documentation scattered on the developers wiki under design
notes, and intermixed with other things that aren't documentation users would
need. Users aren't going to be able to find this.
Since these are dfdlx features, a wiki page with links to their doc is the
right thing, but we should have a link on the user web site that reaches this
summary page, with links to all the dfdlx extension page wiki pages. Copious
warnings about "subject to change without backward compatibility support." can
then be clearly displayed, and the dfdlx features can be grouped into those we
want people to experiement with, and those we don't (which we might possibly
just decide not to mention at all.)
The above is intended to add minimum work to adding a dfdlx extension to DFDL
while giving users a clue about dfdlx features they may see in a DFDL schema,
or need to use.
