Keith Schengili-Roberts commented on DITAADOPT-14:
--------------------------------------------------

Eliot is busy, but willing to collaborate with someone on a basic "how to" guide for using his utility. I would like to see something more beginner-friendly than currently exists with the utility's documentation.

> * Astoria has some technology to do this INSIDE their CCMS. 
> * Rudolfo Ryan may have some tooling here that has helped them with conref/keyref conversions for L10N. 
> * Perhaps the first step might be documenting best practices for how to do the conref-to-keyref conversion manually.
> * It would be good to provide instruction/support for BOTH individual users doing a manual upgrade/conversion and vendors/CMSs doing an automated upgrade/conversion
> * Possible TC issue: shouldn't the spec provide tooling/meta-scripts for these sorts of upgrade issues??
> Eliot Kimber has a utility for this, a transform called "Make Keydefs" which can be found at: https://github.com/dita-community/dita-utilities.
