*** "Integrating DITA at Idiom Technologies" ***

Read this interview with Willie Williams, Senior Technical Writer at 
Idiom Technologies, about the enterprise globalization software 
provider's venture into the world of the Darwin Information Typing 
Architecture (DITA).

Discover why Idiom decided to adopt the OASIS DITA standard and what 
benefits its authoring team hopes to enjoy. Find out if Idiom found it 
necessary to specialize DITA or whether they were able to use it 
"out-of-the-box" -- and why. Discover valuable lessons learned, useful 
metrics, and what content reusability and globalization benefits DITA 
provided Idiom. And, get the scoop on one of the biggest DITA 
challenges -- converting inconsistently structured legacy content to 
DITA.

Additionally, Williams shares information about his experience working 
with Adobe FrameMaker and DITA and explores how his team solved some 
FrameMaker-specific DITA challenges.
