All,

This web site has two DITA white papers that I found useful for newbies like me.  DITA: What you need to know, and Planning for DITA success.  http://www.rockley.com/Whitepapers_Articles.htm

I am a technical writer/editor working at Precisely Write, Inc. in
Fishers, Indiana. I am familiar with HTML and Information Mapping. I
recently attended the FrameMaker conference in North Carolina where
dita was a major topic [no pun intended:-)].
