Subject: Notes for our meeting . . .
1. Invitations to Local Companies SC members discussed ways to involve our respectively local DITA companies in the process of developing requirements and identifying relevant SC issues. Members should contact local companies to determine whether they would be willing to particulate in SC discussions/meetings about their current experiences and future needs. AI/SC - Put feelers out to local companies and report back. 2. DITA 1.3 Feature Articles for Adoption JoAnn suggested that Tom abd Bob consider doing a DITA 1.3 feature article for the Adoption group. Bob - sounds good Tom - sounds good pending discussions with management about the scope of his new role. 3. Information modeling - to assist in Enterprise-wide adoption of DITA a. Policy-based writing Bob suggested that the SC look more closely at modeling policy-based information in DITA. b. Semiconductor industry PLC JoAnn noted that the semiconductor industry had, similarly, many design documents and test documents that needed to be modeled into some more coherent collection -- ideally in DITA. > There may be very nice requirements specialization in there somewhere. c. Agile/scrum specializations Stan noted that there was sufficient commonality in the types of planning and deliver documents on scrum teams to warrant investigation. > The challenges in Agile/Scrum tend to be in the lack of standardized planning frameworks across scrum organizations, e.g. jira, Greenhopper, etc.. The tools for achieving team collaboration get in the way of standardization and identifying common denominators. > Focusing on best practices that sit above particular tool chains may yield better results. 7. DITA Editor (lightweight) Bob suggested that we keep an eye out for ongoing developments coming out of a team in China re: a lightweight DITA editor. 8. Lightweight DITA The SC agreed that it should continue to review options in progress for Lightweight DITA. > Michael Priestley has a proposed implementation for post-DITA 1.3. > Bob has demonstrated a constraint-based implementation that has the advantage of not breaking compatibility with DITA 1.3.
