Join CIDM, Trisoft, and OASIS for the 2nd Annual 2006 DITA Europe Conference! The conference will be at the NH Frankfurt Rhein-Main hotel in Frankfurt, Germany November 2-3. This year you will hear presentations from the DITA technical committee, companies currently implementing DITA, and vendors creating tools to implement DITA.
This year, we have extended the DITA Europe conference to 2 days to give you more opportunities to learn about DITA from people who are currently working with DITA.

In this exclusive TheContentWrangler.com interview with Rick Schochler of Innodata Isogen, Scott Abel talks to Rick about his company’s experience working with the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA). While he and his firm see DITA as an excellent “option” for some organizations, he advises readers to maintain a “healthy skepticism” when it comes to software tools and their “support” for DITA. “Some day we’ll have tools that will provide some default functionality,” Schochler says. For those who, for whatever business reasons, decide not to move to DITA, Schochler has this advice: “Get your data in a tool-neutral format (XML), then choose the content structure approach that best fits your requirements.”
