As we start creating more pages, I'd like to briefly discuss a few minor issues around consistent references:
1. Can we agree there is no need to spell out "Darwin Information Typing Architecture" in the page text, as it will be in the header
graphic?
2. Do we want to link the first (or every) instance of "DITA OASIS Standard" on each page to
http://www.oasis-open.org/specs/index.php#ditav1.0? What happens when there's a DITA v2.0 OASIS Standard? If we want to link to the
standard, is there a link we should use that would be persistent?
3. Do we want to link the first (or every) instance of "OASIS DITA Technical Committee" on each page to
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/dita?
Note: "DITA OASIS Standard" and "OASIS DITA Technical Committee" links will appear in the footer of every page. Of course, we can't
expect visitors to always scroll down that far.
4. I strongly advise Editorial Board members to include "OASIS" in references to the TC, (i.e., "OASIS DITA Technical Committee" not
simply "DITA Technical Committee") and to spell out "Technical Committee" unless it's really being used a lot on a page. Members of
the trade press don't universally recognize the acronym "TC", believe it or not.
Thanks,
Carol
