Neeti is conducting a survey too. In addition, we can post short
(DITA training) videos on YouTube and publicize those links through TWIN,
FaceBook, and other channels.
Thanks,
Akash

Sure Akash. So the way things
stand, the Webinar and presentations at tcworld are the only planned
activities. We'll probably have more concrete action items after tomorrow's
call. What say?

Hi, Matt:
This looks good to me.
BTW, do you want to mention about the 2011 roadmap, i.e., the activities we
have planned, so that people can participate in those events and understand the
benefits of DITA?
Thanks,
Akash

Folks,
To publicize the activities of our SC, I plan to post the following message on

community in India. Please review the message and send me your feedback. We can
vote on it during tomorrow's meeting. We can send similar messages to other
similar groups.
