- Date: Tue, 27 May 2014 09:29:53 -0400
Want to get this on the agenda for discussion
so we can vote next week:
Proposed name:
Lightweight DITA
Proposed mailing list:
dita-light@lists.oasis-open.org
Statement of purpose:
To develop a specification for a lightweight
DITA architecture that can ease implementation by vendors and adoption
by users. The architecture will provide:
- Easy out of the box authoring for
common topic types
- Out of the box mappings and specifications
for authoring these topic types in other formats, such as HTML5 or markdown
- Easy assembly of new specializations
from existing section types
- Easy creation of new specializations
by generation from a topic type designed for specifying specializations
Deliverables
- Analysis of lightweight DITA related
personas, scenarios, and requirements
- Lightweight authoring profiles for
topic, concept, task, reference, potentially others
- Lightweight specialization architecture
- Specialization authoring format
- Analysis of lightweight DITA implementation
options in other formats, including HTML5 and markdown
- Implementations of lightweight DITA
that allow for roundtripping with constrained versions of other formats
