Due to ice and snow, a rare occurrence
here in Austin, we will postpone tomorrow night’s meeting to next week, January
24.
I will send a reminder at the beginning of
next week.
Everyone stay safe and warm.

Hello and
Happy New Year!
Please join
the Central Texas DITA Users Group (CTDUG) at their regular monthly meeting
next Wednesday evening, January 17, 2007.
TOPIC: Stories from the Trenches
This month's
informative presentation comes to us from France
Baril, who has successfully implemented DITA at IXIASoft.
Scary short
stories you can learn from the promises of XML and DITA include better content
quality, lower production costs, better usability and increased collaboration
between authors. Are these promises a reality or are there monsters in the
closet?
This
presentation is based on true DITA implementation stories. It offers remedies
and suggestions against monsters (i.e. vanishing topics, related links spider
net, etc.) that might be haunting writers and sheds some light around scary
dark shadows that are lurking to get in your technical departments.

The photo
has a marker showing the Building C entrance at the north side of
the campus.
If you turn off of Parmer at the main entrance, you'll need to
skirt around
the west side of the buildings to get to the C entrance. If
you head
east/southeast on Anderson Mill from Parmer, you'll find the "back
entrance"
that feeds directly to the Building C entrance.
