This paper describes how DITA-based documentation was implemented at CEDROM-SNi, one of Canada's leading on-line news content aggregators. The project delivers documentation as diverse as user training materials and Web Services reference guides targeted to programmers. We focus on the benefits, how tos, and lessons learned.
ATI Technologies to manage technical documentation with a sophisticated solution
based on the IXIASOFT DITA CMS Framework
Gee, I'm observing in my first several blog posts here, that I'm spending more time worrying about fonts and presentation than my content.
Where's that DITA backend we need for wikis and blogs?
(as I wonder how this one will look after submitted...)

It's been great to read the blog posts from CMS 2006 - I was there in 2005, when DITA had its first full track at a conference, and the excitement was building then. It's amazing how far we've come in just a year: from one or two CMS vendors with DITA support to all of them! Although I suspect that as with the editors, the level of support varies, and features will continue to improve over time: typically supporting topics first, then maps, and finally specialization. Still, the level of focus on DITA as a common standard across CMSs is amazing, and one year since the standard was published is a very fast time to achieve consensus in an industry.
