Wondering if anyone out there has used the latest TriSoft SaaS model? Am interested in the translation management. Does the solution work? Does translation management mean further service purchase from SDL?

What DITA topic type (reference or concept) best logically fits the IMAP Structure information type?

The DITA Help Subcommittee is discussing a proposal to create a new <help-context> element to hold metadata required for context-sensitive Help. The proposal would see the new element fit under the <topicmeta> element in the ditamap, and/or in the <prolog> element in the topic. The element would hold context numbers and/or context strings, and/or a reference to a window description. (There would need to be a separate element in the ditamap that would store the characteristics of a window named in the context-help element.)

We are trying to transform the current XML of our manuals to the DITA structure. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask some help for our transformation.

In our documentation we use a so called 'spare parts list', in which each part that can be used in a machine, has a number and a description.

Our manauls for several machines contain some of the parts which are declared in the above mentioned parts list.

In our current XML of the manual, we refer to the parts, declared in the 'spare parts list'.
