Great, thanks! I did a quick pass through the current BR document, and would add these from the current BR documents:
Vendor neutral
Text formatting (bold, underline, inclined)
Plain-text font (e.g. different font for "code" representations, like BRs section 7.1.5)
Plain-text font for word or for code block
Bulleted items
Multi-level bullets
Numbered items
At least 1,2,3 and a,b,c options (we also use (1)(2)(3) and i,ii,iii)
Nesting of lists (1 a/b/c, 2 a/b/c or 1 i/ii/iii, 2 i/ii/iii)
Line-breaks inside numbered lists
Section Numbering
Automatic section number generation?
At least five levels of section numbers
No/optional automatic indentation for sections (having 1.2.3.4.5 halfway across the page looks odd)
Text sizes 
Headings 
Table of Contents 
Automatic generation of ToC from headers
Three-level inclusion (down to 1.2.3)
Separate page numbers for this section (optional, but we have it today)
Page Numbers 
Separate title page
CA/B Forum logo on first page
License attribution on first page
Metadata block (version, org, date) on first page
No page number on title page
Document title large and centered
Headers
Footers
Footnotes (right now we could do these manually with asterisks where they appear)
Hyperlinks
Tables
Header rows and/or columns
Table alignment (e.g. Centered, Right or Left alignment) on page
Table cell alignment (left/center/right)
Tables can break across pages
With or without table borders (cf. Acronyms table vs. Versions table)
Cross-references? That would be nice to have, considering lots of references in the Guidelines

Subject: [Infrastructure] Document feature requirements

 

Here is a list of "features" that we would like to have in a CA/B Forum produced document (e.g. Baseline Requirements, Bylaws, etc):
Vendor neutral 
text formatting (bold, underline, inclined) 
text font (e.g different font for "code" representations, like BRs section 7.1.5)
bullet-ed items
numbered items 
Section Numbering
text sizes 
headings 
Table of Contents 
Page Numbers 
CA/B Forum logo on first page 
Headers 
Footers
Foot-notes 
Hyperlinks
Tables 
Table alignment (e.g. Centered, Right or Left alignment)
Cross-references? That would be nice to have, considering lots of references in the Guidelines 
Feel free to add missing features.


Dimitris.
