OASIS Launches DITA XML.org Focus Area
March 22, 2006 BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)
The OASIS international standards consortium today introduced the DITA XML.org Focus Area (http://dita.xml.org). The new site serves as the community gathering place and information resource for the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA), an approved OASIS Standard that builds content reuse into the authoring process.
"Interest in DITA is tremendous right now, and there is strong support in the community for a resource to share information," noted Don Day of IBM, chair of the OASIS DITA Technical Committee. "The DITA XML.org Focus Area combines the free expression of a wiki with stable background materials on the standard, as well as organized community postings on topical issues. Novices, experienced implementors, providers of DITA-compliant products and services, local user group members, those interested in advancing the standard -- everyone will be able to make use of the site."
All DITA XML.org Focus Area pages are accessible by the public, and users are encouraged to contribute content.
