Green’s Opinion: Mylyn WikiText targets OASIS DITA.
Possible full cycle wiki-DITA-wiki transformation. Wonder what he thinks of Michael Priestly’s color photo-greyscale photocopy-color photo analogy.

Dita, DocBook and the Art of the Document - O’Reilly XML Blog. My favorite line is from the comments, “Making the HTML customized is not too hard, but making PDF output changes throws one headlong into XSL-FO (and it’s gnarly).”

O’Reilly editor Andy Oram has an excellent article about community-based documentation where he shares his research findings - and it’s not all sugar-coated. Only about half of forum questions are answered correctly, and when a user needs more training or indepth explanations on complex products or configurations, the community can sometimes let them down. Community leaders learn quickly that they can become targets when trying to explain that a task is difficult or complicated. See Educating computer users: the need for community/author collaboration. Find out when documentation deserves further polishing. Excellent insights.
