   RE: [dita-fa-edboard] Collaborating on DITA Spec Proposals

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

However, I think Carol is right about being careful. We need to put our recommendation into the home page for this area.

I won't be able to make tomorrow's call. 
 
I agree that actual work on the spec needs to be done through the TC.  But there is a lot of collaboration that takes place leading up to a proposal.  It seems that the FA is the right place to do that.  Once an idea reaches the formal proposal stage discussion and development of the idea can shift to the TC.
 
Thanks,

We need to be careful on this, as collaborations on the spec itself should be conducted through the OASIS DITA TC. Hopefully, we can use the Focus Area to encourage new membership and greater participation in the work of the TC. Perhaps we should publish a statement about what kinds of collaboration are appropriate for the FA and what kinds should be advanced within the TC so there's no confusion.
 
Let's discuss this with Mary McRae on tomorrow's call. (Mary's off sick today.)

I remember discussing the issue of how we will encourage people to collaborate on ideas and proposals for enhancing the DITA spec, but I don't remember how we resolved it.  There's nothing obvious in the current navigation.
 
Can someone refresh my memory?  Is there any reason why "DITA Enhancements" should not be a heading under DITA Community?
 
Thanks,
 
Jerry
