systems and user assistance content for
implementation using DITA;
- establish recommendations for the integration of
DITA-authored Help systems and software applications using
context-sensitivity;
- remove the obstacles to effective use of DITA for
Help systems through the creation of best
practice guidelines, cookbooks and worked examples, and to promote the
use of DITA for creating Help systems and user assistance content;
- develop informal support for processing DITA for
delivery as Help systems and user assistance;
- establish guidelines that promote best practices
for applying standard DITA approaches to Help systems and user assistance
content.
