LWDITA STC article (Was "Re: [dita] Follow-up on requests to the Lightweight DITA subcommittee")

[Kristen James Eberlein <kris@eberleinconsulting.com>]

OK, this took me a while; it turns out that I attached the PDF to an e-mail rather than uploading it to Kavi. Here is the link to the e-mail with the PDF attached:

Sorry -- The STC article is a great one. The URL that you included is broken; can you resend with a Web URL that does not require company or STC access?

I also posted a copy of the article to the TC repository, but I cannot find it quickly.

Best,

Don't forget the article Michael P and I published on the STC journal:

Happy to add the committee note to my November projects. I will work with Michael and Keith S-R. 

Best,

At yesterday's subcommittee meeting, I suggested that the subcommittee author a committee note about Lightweight DITA. I think such a committee note could include the following:

• Rationale for Lightweight DITA
• Content model for Lightweight DITA
• Element set
• New elements added
• New attributes added
• Specialization model
• Supported or sponsored tooling

I think such a committee note would be critical for the following reasons:.

• So far there is NO material published by the DITA TC. The only materials published on Lightweight DITA are blog pieces, Webinars, and conference presentations by SC members.
• It would ensure that what is being proposed by the subcommittee is clearly understood and supported by the main TC.

I also suggested that it was time for the subcommittee to develop a strawman schedule of what they plan to develop and deliver in the next year.
