Re: [dita] Methods to track issues and bugs

[Michael Smith <smith@xml-doc.org>]

For DocBook, we set up a project at Sourceforge and the TC uses the
bug-tracking interface for that project to track requests for
enhancements to the DocBook DTD/schema and also for bug reports and
feature requests related to the toolkit (stylesheets).

  DocBook RFE tracker
  http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=384107&group_id=21935&func=browse

  other trackers
  http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=21935

We've found that to work pretty well.

As far as using the OASIS website document-management mechanism (Kavi),
I think you might want to avoid relying on it much. There are some
serious limitations and problems related to it -
