Title: Re: [dita] DITA 1.2 approved as an OASIS standard; includes
        list of companies who voted

  
  
    And as the Chair of the OASIS DITA Technical Committee that produced
    this specification, I offer my congratulations and thanks to all
    members of the DITA TC, which designed and wrote this version, and
    to members of the DITA Adoption TC, which developed introductions to
    those new features, and helped review new and overall content for
    this version of the spec. Ultimately, this specification reflects
    specific requests from the user community, and it has received a
    great deal of attention from users and vendors that we hope can been
    appreciated in the final form (soon to be republished with the
    approved title/date in all available formats). For everyone who has
    contributed suggestions or comments, or tested features during the
    review period, I offer my most profound thanks for helping to
    explore new territory in DITA's grand scheme of content sharing and
    repurposing! Ultimately, I hope readers of our content will be the
    real beneficiaries of capabilities in DITA 1.2 that are meant to
    help get the right information to the right person at the right
    time.

    

    There will be a formal announcement/press release from OASIS soon
    that I'll post to the lists on copy; you can watch for it to forward
    or publicize as appropriate to specific community lists that would
    be interested.

    Don Day,

    Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee
