Hi Paul, Thanks for the very good information. This is indeed the approach I'm taking now and I glad you could confirm that this is a viable approach (not...
We need to start evaluating the e-Learning specializations being developed by the DITA Learning SC. I added these specialization to XMetaL the usual way, but...
I'm using XMetaL 5.0 Enterprise Edition. To use the 1.1 DITA DTD in that, you need to do the following (copied from the RNs): Close XMetaL Author. Copy all of...
Hi, I know XMetal Author 5.0 Enterprise Edition has a "repository" menu and claims to interface with Content Management systems. Does it work with Subversion?...
... that, you need to do the following (copied from the RNs): Ah yes, that jogs my memory. I think Tom M. mentioned this a while back, and I must have blocked...
As I mentioned in an earlier, I am trying to configure XMetaL to use the latest version of the DITA-OT in order to use the Learning SC specializations. I have...

Does anyone yet know the scheduled release date for XMetal 5.1? Our group is using DITA 1.3 and I didn't discover that XMetal 5.0 used DITA 1.2 until I had...
I hear through the grapevine it's planned for Dec 2007. Not official, though. Not sure you what you mean by DITA 1.3 and 1.2. Are you talking about toolkit...
Mike, XMetaL 5.0 SP1, which is currently available, uses version 1.3.1 of the DITA Open Toolkit. You can order it by contacting JustSystems customer service...

Hi, All these version numbers get confusing. To clarify: DITA Open Toolkit 1.3.1 shipped with the pre-approved DITA 1.1 DTDs. DITA 1.1 was formally approved...
I was trying to "Create a template" as described on page 24 of the "XMetaL Author DITA Edition User's Guide.pdf" document. At step 3, "Select your DTD," for a...
... Can you open any document that uses that doctype? This would verify the catalog and DTD setup, and I think that's the most likely failure point. - craig...
