Proposed DITA 1.3 webinar, jointly sponsored by DITA TC and DITA Adoption TC

I spoke with JoAnn last week and we came up with a tentative, rough
    plan for a 60-minutes webinar to be jointly sponsored by DITA TC and
    DITA Adoption TC. We now need feedback from the DITA TC, and to know
    if key people can participate on the proposed date.

    

    Date

      

    Thursday, 31 July 2014

    

    Concept

      

    A panel of DITA TC and DITA Adoption TC members, using
    OASIS-branded slides to provide information about a subset of DITA
    1.3 features. Some features -- scoped keys and branch filtering --
    will require more time than others. We'll ask each speaker to
    address similar points to unify the slides, for example:

    
      
What does the feature do? 

      

      
What value does it add to DITA?

      
Use case or scenario that illustrates how the feature works,
        who might use it, and what value it gives them
