Carol,
About the Publishing page, we have two great working documents completed
by the Translation subcommittee. If we can get them approved by the TC
soon, we'll have good content for that part of the publishing page

I think this is done. Please check and let me know if it looks okay.

Note: On the new http://dita.xml.org/introduction, I don't like how you
have to scroll down to the bottom to see the sub links. Maybe we should
keep "Getting Started" as its own page, and just have the Introductions
page be one sentence followed by a list of the sub-links (similar to
what we do at http://dita.xml.org/architecture).

Note also: http://dita.xml.org/production-publishing is still pretty
bare. Do we want to keep this page in the KB? We can always remove it
from the nav and add it back in later.

What JoAnn, Scott, Bruce and I discussed as you were joining today:

Original:
 * DITA 101
 * Production / publishing
 * Milestones
 * FAQ / fact sheet
 * Why DITA?
 * Getting started
 * Open source toolkit
 * Topic-based authoring
 * Architecture
 * Specification

This is the main modification, with my own suggested new order on the
rest--should be vetted by the group.  The 4 child sections would no
longer
appear on the KB front page--they would be child links on the
Introduction
page.

 * Introduction to DITA (Was Getting started)
    - Milestones
    - Why DITA?
    - DITA 101
    - FAQ / fact sheet
 * Topic-based authoring
 * Architecture
 * Production / publishing
 * Open source toolkit
 * OASIS DITA Technical Committee (new)
 * Specification
