- <title>Processing Expectations</title>
-
- <p>There are no specific processing expectations for the <code>credit</code>
- element. As an informational element, it is not necessarily displayed. Some
- tools, however, may choose to display credits at the bottom of a page, on a
- separate information page, or in a dialog.</p>
-
- <p>When processing the children of a <code>credit</code> element, tools
- should select the child elements they understand and ignore all other child
- content.</p>

- <p>The <code>credit</code> element serves the purpose of the
- <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/author.html">author</code>,
- <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/collab.html">collab</code>,
- <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/corpauthor.html">corpauthor</code>,
- <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/editor.html">editor</code>,
- <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/othercredit.html">othercredit</code>, and
- <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/publisher.html">publisher</code>
- elements in DocBook. DocBook does not have specific elements for maintainers
- and translators.</p>
-
- <p>In DocBook, certain credit elements have highly structured content, whereas
- others allow simple inline text. In Mallard, all credits use simple structured
- content. While Mallard does not provide child elements for everything that can
- be recorded in DocBook, elements from external namespaces may be used for any
- additional information that is needed.</p>
-
- <p>The <code>credit</code> element also records copyright information.
- In this capacity, it is similar to the
- <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/copyright.html">copyright</code>
- element in DocBook.</p>
