As stated, ''talmide ha-Rambam'' differ from Dor Daim in that they are not confined to the Yemenite community and need not be committed to specifically Yemenite customs. Nonetheless Yemenite scholarship and practice are still a major resource for them. Two good examples of this are seen in the works of the Rabbi Mori Yosef Qafih (Kapach) and of Mechon-Mamre.org.
*Rabbi Yosef Qafahh has made various contributions to Dor Daim, ''talmide ha-Rambam'' and the Jewish world as a whole. Examples of his contributions include his encyclopedic commentary to the entire Mishneh Torah set to the renowned Yemenite text of the Mishneh Torah, his translation of all of [[Maimonides]]' Commentary on the Mishnah from Arabic into modern Hebrew, as well as translations of the Guide for the Perplexed, Duties of the Heart, Sefer [[Kuzari]], and a number of other works.
*Mechon-Mamre.org has produced Torah databases for learning the Humash, Tanakh, Mishna, the Talmudic texts, as well as the Mishneh Torah according to Rabbi Qafahh and its own accurate and based on "most" manuscripts, using Frankel's scholarly text, intended to be beneficial to allversion rather than the "Dardai" Qafah's version. The Mechon-mamre.org website's "About" section states that most participants in the work of Mechon-Mamre are Baladi Yemenite Jews, although some of the more impacting individuals of Mechon-Mamre.org are not Yemenite or Dor Daim at all, but merely promote observance of Talmudic law as codified in the Mishneh Torah.
Dor Daim and "Rambamists" are most easily recognized by the manner in which their Tzitzit are tied (according to the Rambam, despite slight variations in understanding). Temani/Rambam Tzitzit can be distinguished from those of the many 'knitted kippa' youths who have adopted the same style, but have added Tzitzit#Tekhelet. Rambamists and Baladim are also noticeable by the fact that they wear their Tallit in a different manner from other Orthodox Jews, and even wear it on Friday nights/Erev Shabbath, which is unheard of in the Orthodox world (apart from a handful of Hasidic Judaism in Jerusalem, referred to as ''Yerushalmis'', who wear it very discreetly so as to not look arrogant).
