I planned to dive into all this XML stuff via DITA. Do you know how to
add a "Dita XML Catolog" to ActiveState's KomodoEdit? I can't find
such a catalog at http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.1/OS/
KomodoEdit: Edit > Preferences > Languages > XML catalogs?
is there somebody out who can create a Open Source Komodo Edit dita
extension to get gui/css dita support working for Komodo Edit? That
would be great! Komodo Edit is Mozilla based. You should have
expertise how to create a xpi Mozilla extension(?)
Please, take a look at the "Komodo 4.0 Extensibility Challenge"

This contest is from last year. Feel free to create this extension
anyway though! :)

It *does* give you completions, but you have to include a DITA doctype
declaration in the file you're editing.
I looked through the DITA Open Toolkit licensing, and there doesn't
seem to be anything preventing us from putting the relevant DTDs into
Komodo. I'll look at putting these in and adding a few DITA templates.
It would be nice to have DITA support built-in.

Thanks! I've taken those and used them to create this Komodo
extension:
Now all you have to do is install the extension to get auto-completion
in DITA files. I've even included a few templates. Feel free to post
feedback on the extension page.
