FM Adobe DITA Plugin

[hedley.finger at myob.com]

In the framemaker-dita Yahoo! group, Carla Martinek has just advised ...

> Just got out of the "Benefits of Structured Authoring and Migrating
> In Preparation For XML" webinar a little bit ago.
> 
> One phrase I heard at the beginning of it was along the lines of
> "the DITA plugin should be available in the next week or so."
> 
> Note that on July 11, there is another Adobe webinar titled
> "FrameMaker and DITA" so I imagine it will be out on or before that
> date.  The plugin was installed on the version of 7.2 they were
> using in this webinar.
