Ok, so I checked the dita zip and saw that there is a
license, but it seems to allow distribution.  So I am
going to create a zip of all the dtd's (as well as the
css files, if anyone wants to use them as well), and I
am just going to include that license file in the zip
as well.  I'll send the zip to Jean to post.  Let's
keep the getting started dita files in a separate zip,
so when we have all 6 books in dita, you will only
need to download the dtd's once.

need the dtd files
and how to get them.

Thanks,

That sounds like a good plan, thanks.

So at this point, I think we should do a manual transforms -> html and see what the problems are. Jeff has found the parent child problem, which is what forrest uses by default to create the website. I'm certain he has found others. Then focus on the pdf files. I think Jeff has already done that. I'm looking at the dita-dtd stuff currently. Jeff, were you using the XSLT Scripts referenced in the dita XSL-README.txt? Also, we might want to see if any more information on the subject is publicly available.


A good case study that might get someone up a bit faster with a bit of good background information might be:

"Transforming Documentation from the XML Doctypes used for the Apache Website to DITA: a Case Study" by Donald M Leslie.


I am sure a bunch more exist, as when I was looking around I found a lot of use and papers on the subject.
