B.1.2 Changes from DITA
1.0 to DITA 1.1
(Non-normative) The DITA 1.1 specification was designed
to be backwards-compatible with applications that conform to the DITA

The following major changes to the architecture provided
added functionality for DITA 1.1:
- A <bookmap> specialization for encoding book-specific
information in a DITA map
- A <glossentry> specialization for glossary entries
- Indexing specializations for see, see-also, page ranges,
and sort order
- Improvements to graphic scaling capability
- Improved short description flexibility through a new
<abstract> element
- Specialization support for new global attributes,
such as conditional processing attributes
- Support for integration of existing content structures
through the <foreign> element
- Support for new kinds of information and structures
through the <data> and <unknown> elements
- Formalization of conditional processing profiles
