Running DITA concurrently with a document metadata system
I'm looking at how we develop DITA to handle the content of our research reports, which will need some topic specializations, so it's not a rush job. In the meantime my colleague, our knowledge manager, is developing a document metadata architecture that will make our legacy documents searchable.
DITA Open Toolkit 1.4 requirements gathering
As this thread is being initiated (November 7, 2007), the current version of DITA OT is 1.3. On behalf of the DITA OT development team, we plan a couple of intermediate patch releases to address high-priority bugs for 1.3, which will take us into Spring of 2007. This forum thread is for the DITA user community to comment on core requirements for DITA OT 1.4, which could be a 2nd quarter 2007 deliverable (the date will depend on sizings and resources after the requirements cutoff).
DITA: Getting Started workshop
Michael Priestley
MP: DITA Europe 2006 impressions
The conference just finished, and I'm writing down some impressions while they're still fresh.
Day 1 kicked off with my keynote on "DITA evolves" - starting with an introduction to DITA, then talking about the ways in which DITA can adapt to different environments or authoring requirements, can scale from simple pilot projects to complex cross-enterprise applications, and the resulting network effects that can emerge from the combination of pervasive usage and robust reuse.

Daylights: Ya need an adapter!
One of the joys I get from working with the DITA Open Toolkit is seeing the extent to which it helps run the production business of so many writing teams. The DITA OT team has done a lot of work to set up some major interfaces in it to make it run in more places, with more options and fewer restrictions, and to make it both embeddable and pluggable, greatly increasing its versatility for both individual users and for commercial authoring tools.
