5. Report back from CMS DITA NA conference
- Nancy; technology kitchen area was a real success.
- Scott; yeah, I spent most of Monday out there.
- Kris; how did seesions go that were put on by TC members?
- Bob; I did one on techcomm SC; some folks may be interested in joining.
- Carlos; same for LwD session; good questions, generally positive response.
- Stan; wrt session on listening sessions, maybe a little bit too much time on results, but we did have a real listening sesssion, and we really got across that we really want their help.
- Keith; I also thought it went well; we got good reasponses from crowd for what they want to see going forward. I'd echo Stan; we spent too much time on results, not enough on actual listening session. Also, the session Leigh and I did was standing room only. Also lots of folks at the 2.0 talk on Tuesday.
- Mark; a lot more younger people were at the conference than usual.
- Chris; a lot of interest in LwD and lightweight everything else, Github, Eliot's talk on D4ST.
- Kris; that might be hard on vendors...
- Mark; it's good for the community, though.
- Keith, and people get into DITA with small solutions, then move to larger-scale ones and come to us and other vendors.
- Chris; as a vendor on the delivery end, we got a lot of interest from folks. People are getting far enough along in their maturity model that they're thinking more about delivery.
- Scott; there were comments about wanting listening sessions in the upper midwest. Many folks are not thrilled about Yahoo group, want to start a slack channel to improve it.
- Kris; it will be interesting to see what comes up. dita-users is solid and mature.
- Robert; I don't know how a slack channel would work, the content is very ephemeral if you don't pay for it.
- Dawn; we got lots of good responses from varied people; attendance was up by 20% from previous year; many brand new folks. It was a good event in terms of who we reached.
- Robert; despite the buzz on LwD, there was continued interest in full DITA. Ideas from user community, e.g. turning chapter/part into a domain. We have to be careful of what we say, to keep people from misunderstands creating fear.
- Kris; I wish we could do a better job of communicating to non-technical people the concepts underlying shells and things.
- Carlos; I ran into someone who heard 2.0 might be backwards incompatible and thought it wouldn't support her 1.3 implementation.
- Kris; we've got to do better than that.
- Don; any reactions to beta version of dita.xml.org?
- Keith; it came up, but there were no chances to show it off.
6. Continuing item: Formal work on DITA 2.0
a. DITA 2.0 Proposal: Add to
