Can you help with the DITA 1.2 Architectural Spec?

[Don Day <dond@us.ibm.com>]

Dear OASIS DITA TC Member or Voting
Member,

We have an urgent need for editorial
help in completing the draft of the DITA 1.2 Architectural Spec. I ask
that you consider offering whatever help you can in developing assigned
portions of that content.  I would appreciate if you would consider
volunteering to help, and let me know of your interest by next week's meeting.

The outline of work, as we understand
it, was laid out last August by Jeff Ogden in the thread concluded by this
note:

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/200808/msg00033.html

Resources and contacts for each of the
accepted DITA 1.2 items are documented in the "Implementation Status
1.2" document here in the OASIS DITA TC's wiki:

http://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita/ImplementationStatus1.2

Of course, the DITA TC's FrontPage document
list these and other resources as well--I'll just point you generally there
for the background you will need for this request.

Draft writing is one of the key ways
to participate meaningfully in standards work, and I urge you to consider
helping actively in this way so that the DITA TC can get the 1.2 Specification
back on track for submission into the official approval process as quickly
as we can.

Thank you for thoughtfully considering
this request.

Regards,
--
