RE: [dita-adoption] Website Improvement Tiger Team

["Su-Laine Yeo" <su-laine.yeo@justsystems.com>]

This is an excellent idea. Can we put an item on the agenda to discuss
how to empower Doug's team to make the changes? I think it would be best
for the Adoption TC to see the initial prioritised list before changes
are made. However, to avoid discouraging tiger team members, we should
adopt the principle of giving the tiger team a lot of latitude, and sign
off on anything that is reasonable. 

Cheers,

Subject: [dita-adoption] Website Improvement Tiger Team

Following on from the Focus Area discussion at the last meeting of the 
DITA Adoption TC (11 October, 2010), I propose

1. That a Website Improvement Tiger Team be established.
2. The Tiger Team will
    a) produce a prioritised list of actions to improve OASIS DITA web 
sites
    b) carry out the top priority items
    c) repeat a and b

The modus operandi is up to the Team to decide, but I suggest adopting 
an Agile Documentation approach analogous to Agile Programming. For 
example, the work is planned for two-week sprints, tackling the top 
priority items. Impediments to progress are reported and addressed. The 
priorities should favour actions that give quick wins so that early 
progress is visible.
