Web and Wiki pages for the OASIS DITA Adoption TC

The DITA Adoption TC and the DITA TC are separate OASIS TCs. They both focus on different aspects of DITA. Their work is complementary and is coordinated at a high level through overlapping membership.

The DITA Adoption TC is focused on educational and outreach activities to increase the awareness and usefulness of DITA. The Adoption TC includes an Editorial Board that maintains the DITA XML.org Focus Area.

The DITA TC is focused on developing the DITA specification as an OASIS Standard.

Gershon Joseph is a member of both TCs and has been appointed by the DITA TC as its official liaison to the DITA Adoption TC.
