DITA at the XML 2007 Conference
Blog entry: Submitted by Bob Doyle on Thu, 2007-12-06 22:46.
The IdeaAlliance XML 2007 Conference theme was "XML in Practice". XML 2007 featured a Documents and Publishing Track, with important presentations on DITA, as a fine example of XML in practice.
The opening presentation, by Eric Severson of Flatiron Solutions, argued that DITA is taking the world by storm (PPT). Entitled "Practical Lessons for DITA Implementation," Severson had an excellent slide that compared DITA to DocBook, showing how topics are assembled by maps and DocBook is a monolithic document.
