Actually, anyone on the Editorial Board can create a new poll. Go to the
"create content" link in the right column, select "poll". It's really easy.

Hi there,
I'm back (part-time) and can post the article. Do I post the question or
does someone else do that?
Thanks, A

Well, to perhaps get more of a sense of usage practices out there, how
about:

How are you most likely to use keyword markup in your DITA maps and
topics?

* as metadata in the prolog
* as semantically-tagged inline content
* as specialized keywords for inline content
* just rely on index terms

Amber,
I'm not hearing objections from anyone about the article. I've enclosed
the last edited version here. You should post to the site as Carol
suggests so that your name is associated with the article.

Any ideas about a poll question?
Are you confused about how to use the DITA elements associated with
keyword?
A lot
Some
A little

Fairly lame but it's a start for everyone else to think.

I would like a new Forum for discussions: What about Showcase Forum?

Is Amber back? If so, she should post the final article to the site
(that way,
it will be associated with her name and she'll be able to edit it if
needed)
and send me the link. If not, just email me the final version, and I'll
post
it.

I'll also need a multiple choice poll question and optional answers.

If we want to create a new Forum for discussions on this topic, please
let me
know what it should be called.

Once we have all that created, Amber (or someone from the Editorial
Board)
should post a message to the yahoo list directing people to the article
and
active discussion.

Thanks,
Carol
