Re: [docbook] <productname class="???">

is there any particular philosophic reason, why the enumerated values of the "class" attribute of the "productname" element don't contain "none"? I can imagine many products, which have not assigned a trademark, copyright neither are registered marks.
For these one cannot use the default TM sign (class="trade"), as it is not legal, IMHO.

The aim of productname is to capture product names that act as trademarks in order to list them in the trademark disclaimer. In many cases you can use application element to mark software and also *hardware* products without saying anything about their copyright or trademark status.


If using application element is not option for you, then you can create new DocBook RFE at:

Please provide example about intended usage and describe why other DocBook markup is not suitable in your particular cases. Based on this input DocBook TC might extend list of values permitted on class attribute or come with other solution.
