Workspace to enhance cross-referencing
This page serves as a top level resource for the discussion, design, and research related to the enhancement of cross-referencing in DITA. Most of the actual work takes place on the pages linked to by this article.
Forum ThreadsThe forum threads related to cross referencing are all placed in the Specializations board. These threads represent the discussion from which the final products are born.
