Subject: Re: [dita] Sound bite for the OASIS press release
Looks good. Here are a couple of copy edit suggestions: 1) Lose the hyphen in professionally published (you could actually drop professionally published altogether, but at least drop the hyphen). 2) I would invert the last sentence and say, "Because of ..... to support content reuse, DITA is widely used ...." I have some thoughts on the other paragraph, which I'll send separately.

DITA is widely used for professionally-published books and magazines, technical documentation, online help, training and course development, marketing materials, and medical information because of its modular, topic-based approach and its ability to support content reuse. > > Best, > Kris > > Kristen James Eberlein > Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee > Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting > www.eberleinconsulting.com > +1 919 682-2290; kriseberlein (skype) > > On 1/15/2016 4:03 PM, Kristen James Eberlein wrote: >> Sounds, good.
