Getting started with DITA
I attended the STC conference a few weeks back, and that was the first place I had ever heard of DITA. A lot of companies at the conference were using it, and I was very intrigued to find this much information exists. That is sort of the problem...I am trying to figure out where to start. I want to be able to both explain it and use it. Any tips? I am trying to implement it here at work as a capability.
Thanks,
Heather

SpectaReg for chip developers
For electronic system (ES) development teams, PDTi is working to simplify the process of collaboratively converting specifications into logic design, verification, firmware, validation, and documentation views. For memory-mapped registers - the common hardware/software interface - PDTi's SpectaReg product can be configured to generate DITA topics from specifications (captured into extended SPIRIT XML). Please contact PDTi for more details.
