Open Publish is a new conference designed to focus on management and implementation issues relating to publishing technology.

Covering key ideas such as standards initiatives, single-sourcing data and content management, Open Publish will discuss these topics from the perspective of best practices, project methodologies and human/usability factors rather than simply technology.

Sessions will include an overview of OASIS publishing-related technical committees and a Gentle Introduction to DITA (presented by Brett Freeman of Justsystems).
