Thanks,

With Stan and Scott sending regrets for tomorrow's meeting, am thinking it might be worthwhile to postpone things until the next scheduled meeting time for June. Is that okay with everyone else?

 

Speaking for myself, have been too busy on work/life projects of late, so sadly I have no updates to add.

 

Cheers!

For my action item, here's what I recommend to migrate content from DITA to mdita (markdown):
1. In oXygen, run the markdown transform on the ditamap, which converts the DITA to markdown.
    For some reason, it outputs all the files with .html extensions, even though the content is in markdown.
    Rename the files to have .md extensions

2. Another approach:
    Run an XHTML transform on the map to convert the files to XHTML
    Install pandoc and run the XHTML to Markdown conversion

Hope this helps!

Best regards,

--Scott
