[DCRM-L] DPC on manufacture elements - final(?) rule edits, with commentary

[Erin Blake]

Re-sending, with correct subject line!


For what it's worth, it is also true of graphic material that using the place of printing as the place of publication is likely to mislead. Even before the Industrial era made off-shore printing a money-saver, rolling presses and the skill to use them well were scarce compared to common presses. I think [The Earth] is going too far one direction and [New York?] too far the other (for graphic material, at any rate), but [Great Britain or the United States?] isn't. [S.l.] should only ever be a last resort.



Perhaps a parenthetical comment could be added to the example? For instance (Comment: S.l. should only be used as a last resort; it is given here for illustrative purposes).



However, since the purpose of the DPC is to agree on new wording in the body of the text, so that other modules can proceed, I don't think BSC needs to worry about the example now. Examples are independent between modules, so when the time comes to revise DCRM(B), the wording of the example can be discussed again if necessary. If DCRM(M) has an [S.l.] example here and other modules have a [Europe?] example, that's okay.
