Subject: NOTES: dita.xml.org Meeting (07-08)
=================================================== Informal Notes: 07-08 Concall with Don Day, JoAnn Hackos, and Stan Doherty re: dita.xml.org =================================================== 1. Don reported that Mark Poston (Mekon) would need another 6-7 weeks to complete the infrastructure to support what we need to manage dita.xml.org. 2. Prior to the production repository being ready, we could exchange test files with Mark via a DropBox folder. > Details TBD. 3. Existing dita.xml.org content: The Adoption TC audited the existing content on dita.xml.org and identified a small number of items worth preserving. 4. New material ready to move to dita.xml.org: Between whitepapers and other reports, we figured that there were numerous candidates for inclusion. > Details TBD. 5. JoAnn suggested that approaching the new content from a Gerry McGovern, top-tasks perspective might simplify our planning and execution. 6. Approval process: Need to formalize a short-term and long-term process. 7. Site-wide metadata: Don noted that the new site will be responsive to metadata that we develop. We need to use a wiki page (or something) to start to build a subjectScheme map to drive site categories. 8. Schedule: - July to mid-August: Identify some existing material that could be sent to Mark as test material. - July to mid-August: Develop some site-wide metadata for Mark to test. - Queue up a library of existing content to move into the production site when it is ready. 9. Tools: - Stan to review/test any2dita (http://any2dita.com/) and expeDITA (http://expedita-cct.com/dcc/). Train the trainer. - Any2DITA provides a path for content developers who are NOT DITAheads to contribute content authored in lightweight formats: > HTML > wiki > Markdown > Rich text - Engage DITA tools vendors to support collaborative tool sets.
