Thank you. A to do item for next week is to schedule a spec building tutorial with Robert. That was an agenda item from the last LwDITA SC call.Â

Best that I could get. I'm a little confused by the lack of
functional maps -- I built a map and included element-reference,
attribute, and conformance topics. I could not find architectural
spec topics ...

Hi Kris,
We donât have a functional map there. You can
explore and try to build something.Â
Thank you,

Reminder -- The TC needs a copy of the current LwDITA
spec draft for the meeting tomorrow. PDF is fine, and no
need for OASIS styling.
I'll build from the GitHub repo tomorrow morning, if
needed.
Best,
Kris

'm happy to discuss fast-tracking the LwDITA spec;
I've been trying to do so since 2016 or earlier,
beginning with insisting that the subcommittee issue
the committee note.
Two things:
It would be helpful for the TC to see the current
state of the LwDITA spec. We understand that it is a
draft document. I can create a PDF from the content
in the LwDITA repo, if needed.
The LwDITA spec editors need to understand the
reality of the spec approval timeline. The LwDITA
spec needs to be approved by the TC and then
sent through the OASIS process. After TC approval,
there is a minimum of six months for the
OASIS process, assuming NO need to modify the
spec draft in any way. See https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/dita/download.php/50807/Planning-DITA-1.3.pdf
for more information.
Please look at the PDF referenced above in order to
understand the OASIS processes and the time frame that
they impose.
Best,
Kris

Colleagues,
I would like to tee up a discussion about Lightweight
DITA spec development for Tuesday's DITA TC meeting.
Adobe gave a demo of their Lightweight DITA support to
a small group last Tuesday. What they showed was very
encouraging ... support for XDITA authoring in the
current release of Adobe FrameMaker, HDITA (LwDITA
expressed in HTML5) in RoboHelp, and Lightweight DITA
support in Adobe Experience Manager, Adobe's
enterprise web CMS. Adobe is also deploying an
internal workflow based on MDITA for customer-facing
content. They used the Lightweight DITA Committee Note
as the basis for their implementations.
Carlos and I have asked Kris to open a dialog about
tactics for fast-tracking the Lightweight DITA
specification. We have increasing vendor support and
adopter momentum, and fear that publishing a
Lightweight DITA spec in 2020 or 2021 would risk
irrelevance.
Of course, Lightweight DITA must be compatible with
DITA, and the DITA 2.0 specification is clearly on a
different timetable. We trust this can be acknowledged
and accommodated, without delaying the Lightweight
DITA specification while DITA 2.0 spec development
progresses.
Carlos, Michael, and I (LwDITA spec editors) look
forward to this discussion.
-Alan
