Learning curve for FrameMaker

[Mollye Barrett]

Though I don't know the release detail, Kay Whatley and Bernard Ashwanden
(Bright Path Solutions) both have books coming out very soon. I believe
they cover structured Frame in general and DITA specifics. I reviewed the
gallies at the FrameMaker Chautauqua and they appear to be promising
step-by-step books!
