Next video in the DITA documentation progress report series in which I demonstrate the results of the work of my colleagues Denes, Tamas and Kornel.

In this video you'll see:

  • A prototype of the documentation client and server that can be used for centralized documentation similar to how the localization server works.
  • Poorman's DITA: A CCK form with the most important elements from the DITA topics (currently tasks and concepts) that is transformed into valid DITA XML

In this video I demonstrate the results of the work of my colleagues Denes and Tamas, who built a first implementation of a Drupal site that takes DITA topics and let's you add them in a mindmap interface to a DITAmap and than export them using the DITA Open Toolkit.

This is a follow up on the blog posts I published a month ago: one with an interface mockup and the other post with a mindmap to ditamap conversion proposal.

In an earlier post I explained that Graphmind could be used as a tool for building ditamaps. In this post I'll explain how we could do a 1 to 1 translation of native .mm features to essential ditamap features.

Today Peter activated his brand new Graphmind feature on our intranet/extranet that we built with Open Atrium. The feature adds: a tab to the features menu in group spaces; a view page with the mindmaps in the active group space and a button to create new mindmaps. The feature might be quite basic, but the possibilities are mind-boggling.

In February I wrote a blogpost on how Drupal Freemind 2.0 could be turned into a relational (semantic) data interface. So many months later we've abandoned the Java plugin in favour of a Flex plugin and with what result...

Drupal Freemind 2.0 – a relational (semantic) data interface
