plan for the next 7 months

Ann's 
summarized the plan that was clarified at 
the F2F meeting at STC in Dallas last 
week. Here are my notes summarizing that summary 
:->

 

Three white 
papers

 

1. Aggregated editing 
-- review next meeting 5/24 then to TC (Steve, close to ready)
2. Business 
case -- DITA in the business world (Ann & Michael, end of June)
3. 
Expanded BusDocs solution (TBD-abstract layer, perh. specializations) 
(Rob)

 

Common reusable 
components in all three documents, to reduce dependencies on reading a prior 
document:
- Use cases
- Short business case section
- Glossary of 
terms

 

Solid by end of 
summer, beginning of Fall, EOY open 
discussion & evangelizing on a broader basis with vendors, at conferences, 
etc.

 

[Report to the DITA TC might be in June or July, guessing. 
We could request to make a report on a particular date, and that would give us a 
firm date that is in our control.]
