Is there any information available about where and when DITA Europe 2008 will be organized this year?

It was mentioned in the Conference Proceedings of last year's conference that DITA Europe 2008 would also take place in November and in Brussels, Belgium. Is this still correct? Any further details known yet?

I have a DITA topic which I am transforming into another topic.  I do this with XLST v1. using the javax.xml.transform classes.  When I use <xsl:copy />, the output document has xmlns:ditaarch= atrributes on the elements being copied.  The Open Toolkit (1.4.2.1) does not allow this to build.  How can I either prevent the attribute, or tell the OT to allow it.  I have tried adding name space to the style sheet,changing the default name space of the style sheet but cannot prevent the namespace attribute appearing in at least 1 element.

We are trying to transform the current XML of our manuals to the DITA structure.

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'.

How can we implement this in a DITA structure?

Hi

Can anyone explain me how to create index entries and generate an index page using DITA?

Hi all,

we are using DITA OT 1.3.1 and when we install it to Program Files directory, we are getting messages:

[DOTX027W][WARN]: Unable to retrieve linktext from target: 'file.xml'. Make sure the topicref type matches the target, and that the file name and topic id are correct.
