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

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

WRT Bruce's message, I did turn Drupal's comment feature back on, so at the bottom of every page, there's an "add comment" link. Editorial Board members could periodically review any comments posted and make decisions about incorporating them into the main text of the page.
 
I've added instructions on this at http://dita.xml.org/knowledge-base. Note we have a spreadsheet attached to this page. Do we need to keep this there post-launch?
 
Note also that I've edited the footer for the site. Now we have links to the KB, Today, and Wiki overview pages with instructions for adding content to each. Please let me know if you think this works.
 
WRT Michael's message, I'll have to check with Mary McRae.

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.
