> JoAnn Hackos's Workshop Series announces the DITA: Getting Started
> workshop at the Elvetham in Hartley Wintney, Hampshire United
> Kingdom May 21-22, 2008, taught by Frank Miler.
>
> DITA (Darwin Information Typing Architecture) provides you with an
> open-source OASIS standard to support topic-based authoring of well-
> structured content. Out of the box, DITA encompasses three primary
> information types (concept, task, and reference) that provide a
> structure amenable to most technical information, as well as a
> mechanism for extending the structure to specialize your industry's
> needs.
>
> This workshop is designed as an introduction to Darwin Information
> Typing Architecture (DITA). DITA is an information architecture that
> presents a powerful solution for information developers. It is meant
> for those who need to implement structured documentation, including
> writers, editors, information architects, and their managers.
>
> This workshop will cover the basics of creating DITA topics,
> assembling them into maps, creating relationship tables, and getting
> everything to process for final output. Everything is hands-on. You
> are required to bring a laptop computer and sample documentation to
> complete exercises with. Be prepared to learn how to use a DITA XML
> editor to author topics.
>
> Receive the Introduction to DITA: A Basic User Guide to the Darwin
> Information Typing Architecture book free with registration to this
> workshop.
