Discussion List Opens for OASIS DITA S1000D Interoperability
OASIS has created a new discussion list to explore the
possibility of
forming a technical committee to advance DITA S1000D
interoperability.
DITA is an OASIS XML markup standard designed for
topic-based authoring
and re-use. S1000D, also an XML markup standard designed for
re-use is
aimed primarily at civil and military equipment
documentation. This mail
list will remain open for 90 days. Anyone, including OASIS
members and
non-members, may subscribe to this list in order to discuss
the merits
and possibility of the proposed project.
