Coming in 2011
The DITA XML standard is growing quickly and gaining acceptance in a wide variety of applications. With this growth has come the need for clear, comprehensive publications for authors, content strategists, tools builders, and managers.
To address this need, XML Press is developing a series of publications around DITA. Authored by recognized authorities, who have been using DITA as long as it has existed, the DITA Series will provide the most comprehensive coverage of the DITA standard available.
In keeping with XML Press’s commitment to using the tools we write about, the DITA series will be authored using the DITA 1.2 standard, and produced using widely available tools.
Here are the publications currently under development:
| Title | Author | Pub. Date | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| DITA Specialization | Zarella Rendon | 2011 | Everything you need to know to specialize DITA for your needs. |
| DITA for Practitioners | Eliot Kimber | 2011 | An implementors guide to DITA from a leading DITA practitioner. |
| Authoring with DITA | Anindita Basu | Mid-year, 2011 | A guide for technical communicators. |
| The DITA Reference | TBA | Mid-year, 2011 | A comprehensive reference for the DITA 1.2 standard. |
