   RE: [dita-fa-edboard] put the standard in the focus area?

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

What if we provided the language reference (or at least a portion of it) to let people create more understandable real-life examples that will help everyone else understand what that purpose of some of the elements are? I know that some of the times I have looked through the Language reference, the examples are misleading.
 
Or will that be too big of an effort right off?

Along these lines, I was thinking of defining shadow pages for some of the architecture pages, so that people could comment, and then the comments could be edited into the architecture pages.
 
This would help a lot with keeping up with abstracts of articles, for example.

It just occurred to me that one way to kickstart/focus discussion in the community area would be to provide the existing DITA 1.0 spec as a set of starter topics, which people can then comment on, respond to, etc. - effectively letting the community annotate the spec.

How hard would this be, and would it be ok/appropriate from an OASIS point of view? I'm not suggesting this as a prereq for launch, but thinking it could be a useful follow-on activity.
