I'm not terribly surprised about this. No, there's nothing very useful
that ships with the product. There's a lot "out there" in blogs and
wikis and maillists .. but unless you know where to look or who to ask,
you're probably out of luck. Yes .. posting to the FM forum should have
provided more than just a reference to the docs.
The problem is that "creating a DITA project" in FrameMaker is really no
different than doing that in any other XML authoring tool. You do need
to understand the structured FrameMaker UI, but DITA is DITA regardless
of the tool.
I often answer those posts on the FM forum, don't know why I missed it. :o

I was really surprised by the thread in the link below. I'd heard that
Adobe added cookbooks and samples to the more recent versions of
FrameMaker to help people get started with structure, and especially
DITA. Is that all hype and no substance? Are you still hearing that
people have trouble using DITA out of the box with FrameMaker 10?

I tried to figure out how to create a DITA project in structured
FrameMaker 10. I was unable to find any entry-level documentation or
sample projects suitable for learning:

I'm sure I could figure out how to do it if I had to, but if
somebody's paying me for my time, it would probably be more
cost-effective to buy Oxygen.
