Happy New Year All!!!

JoAnn has proposed that the DITA Adoption TC and the  DITA TechComm SC explore meeting together, given our membership and activities cross-over. Great idea!!!

The following meeting agenda is derived mostly from ongoing TechComm Subcommitee activities. Feel free to send email adding, amending, or bah-humbugging items. :-)
