/ Trevor Jenkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to say:
| In TDG the examples for funcdef are of this style:
| 
| <funcdef>int <function>sample</function></funcdef>
| 
| However, the content model for function allows the returnvalue element.
| This implies that one could markup that same function as:
| 
| <funcdef><function><returnvalue>int</returnvalue> sample</function></funcdef>
| 
| Now the question is whether that's sensible. (I'd argue that returntype is
| a better name for an element in this context.)
| 
| How would others markup such function definitions? Staying with TDG or
| going with the alternative.

Returnvalue is a relatively new addition. I think it makes sense to
markup the return type.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
