France,
The article is posted at http://dita.xml.org/reuse-strategies. Please check it
and make sure it looks okay.

I also created a new poll http://dita.xml.org/reuse-poll.

I've set up a Forum at http://dita.xml.org/reuse-forum to correspond with the
article. Please create a post there, similar to the one JoAnn created to
jumpstart her article's Forum at http://dita.xml.org/node/1413#comment-71. Try
to check back at least weekly to address any questions that get posted there.

We're working now to change out the homepage <soapbox> reference.

Carol

France,
Hopefully, the Forum we create for your article will be used for experiences
and opinions.  I'll call the Forum, "Reuse strategies" -- unless you tell me
you want something else.

There will also be space for readers to append comments to the end of your
article.

I'd be nice to also have space for more elaborate answers... About experiences
and opinions.

If you read my mind, why would you have to ask? That's exactly what I meant to
add. ;-)

Seth and I are working on inserting France's graphics into those long white
gaps now. We won't link from the homepage until that's done.

Thanks for the poll question, Don. What would appropriate options for answers
be:

-Extremely significant
-Somewhat important
-Not at all

?

The code section needs some TLC to allow the markup to actually show--in my
browers, I see long white gaps where the browser is eating the tags and leaving
the whitespace.

A good related poll question might be: Of what importance is reuse to your
decision whether to use DITA?

As written, the question could apply to either a user or a seeker, and it
subtly suggests that reuse is in fact a significant reason why others DO choose
DITA.

Thanks to France for providing this article. I've posted the text at
http://dita.xml.org/reuse-strategies, and I'm working with Seth now to insert
the two graphics. Once that's done, we'll get it posted to the homepage

Do we want to create a new Forum around this <soapbox>, and if so, what should
it be called?

How about a related poll question?

Thanks,
Carol

Here is the article, in Word format.

Should it be reviewed by the TC before it is put online? What is the procedure
to add it to the web page?

And big thanks to JoAnn for doing a very useful first editing round!!!

France,
We can certainly include images. Let me know when you're ready to post the
article, and I'll make sure there are no glitches.

HI France,
Great! I think we want to run Bruce's article for two months. It started the
1st of January. That means running yours beginning in March. I'm sure they can
figure out how to accommodate some images but I'm forwarding this to the
editorial board for comments from Carol et al.

Hi JoAnn,

I believe I can address the subject of map vs conditions based on what I have
in this presentation...

Two questions:
 * When do you need it?
 * Can I include images in the article?

Hi France,
We had a meeting of the editorial board for dita.xml.org

We are currently running Bruce Esrig's article on why specialization on the
home page "soapbox."  We're interested in an article from you for the next
soapbox, based on your slide presentation on content repurposing. We are trying
to make the article stimulating and provocative. The idea is to discuss the
idea of "when to use conditions"
and when to create a "new map."

Let me know if you're interesting in doing something on this topic. Look at
Bruce's article for an idea of length.  http://dita.xml.org

Thanks for your help,
JoAnn
