The DITA TC wants you!
Content of e-mail
The DITA Technical Committee is looking for new voting members.
In order to become a voting member, you need to meet the following qualifications:
- Have an OASIS membership. You can acquire an OASIS membership if you work for a company that already is an OASIS member, if you coax your company to
join OASIS, or if you join OASIS as an individual. (A list of companies that are OASIS members is attached to this e-mail.)
- Commit to regularly attend DITA TC meetings, which are held every Tuesday at 11 AM – noon ET, and participate in the work of the TC. This requires a
commitment of at least 4-6 hours per month.
Here is a list of the kinds of work that voting members of the TC participate in:
- Developing and reviewing proposals for what goes into new releases of the DITA standard
- Responding to feedback from the DITA community that is sent through the dita-comment list or as a GitHub issue
- Reviewing the DITA specification as new releases of the DITA standard are developed
- Building and updating stylesheets for DITA TC publications: specification and committee notes
- Discussing the current state of the DITA “universe” and community
- Developing and participating in DITA TC panels, presentations, and webinars
There are significant benefits to being a voting member of the DITA TC:
- Being part of a community of wonderful people, some of whom have worked together for years: Robert Anderson, Carsten Brennecke, Bill Burns, Stan Doherty,
Kris Eberlein, Nancy Harrison, Scott Hudson, Gershon Joseph, Eliot Kimber, Zoe Lawson, Keith Schengili-Roberts, Eric Sirois, Dawn Stevens, and Frank Wegmann.
- Having the opportunity to learn from well-known DITA experts
You will be especially valuable to the DITA TC if you have the following qualifications:
- Robust knowledge of DITA
- Understand the difference between “DITA as a standard” and “DITA as implemented at company X”
- (Serious brownie points here) Experience implementing a DITA processor
Best,
Kris
