   RE: [dita-fa-edboard] DITA Focus Area Forums

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

I would also add a container for discussion on other tools such as CMS
and commercial publishing tools.

Don and I were talking this week also about how we can market to other
groups/departments/domains. Is there some way we can leverage the DITA
focus area to provide some possible solutions/scenarios to groups other
than technical writing or at least on how to integrate different groups
with technical writing through DITA (i.e., marketing, training,
development, etc.) or is this jumping the gun?

Subject: [dita-fa-edboard] DITA Focus Area Forums

DITA FA Editorial Board:
I'm happy to report we have the dita-users Yahoo! Group feed posted on
the staging site (http://dita-staging.xml.org/forum). Links to the most
recent five posts are displayed in the right nav.

As Don says, we don't want to confuse or detract from the dita-users
group, but I do think we need to encourage the use of the Focus Area's
Forums as a reference for common issues. To that end, I've drafted the
following topics that might serve as useful Forum containers. Please
review and send me your comments.
As someone mentioned on this week's call, when we see a particularly
useful post on dita-users list, we could ask that person to repost on
the applicable FA Forum.

Proposed Forum containers:

Specializations
 For support and collaboration on creating DITA Specializations

Editor Implementations
 For discussing experiences using DITA editors

Toolkit Issues
 For help in using the DITA Toolkit

Installation Issues
  For questions related to installing DITA

Post Installation Support
  DITA is up and running, now how do I...?

Paid DITA Support
  Job postings, consulting contracts, RFPs... 

Translations
  For volunteers interested in translating the DITA spec into other
languages

Feedback on this Site
  For questions on how to use this web site, bug reports, requests for
support from OASIS technical staff



Note: Please send your feedback to me via email and don't post anything
directly to the staging site at this point. We don't want it to be
out-of-sync with the public site.


Thanks,
Carol
