*** Bug 74825 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This feature has been brought forward to the planning group to be moved to a future release. This has been deferred to 4.1. Deferring from 4.1 as per the official 4.1 enhancement plan. http://eclipse.org/tptp/home/project_info/featureplans/features.php?source=All&project=All&release=4.1&file=TPTPFeatures_4.1.xml This enhancement should be reconsidered. Moving topics to DITA will require resource to change existing docs to XML DITA format. It will also increase the complexity and resource required to produce docs by adding a "transform" step. Also, I have yet to see a project at IBM where we have cashed in on the promised benefits of XML DITA. I believe that getting value out of XML DITA will require additional resource investment. Given the resource crunch, this does not seem viable. I would put my resource into improving the content rather than moving to a new source format that will have little user benenfit. Let some of the larger projects go to XML DITA first. When they have proven the customer value, then reconsider. Today, the doc model we have (working directly in HTML) is simple, efficient and suited to our situation of limited doc resource. I agree that the doc tracking & consistency problems that we've discussed have higher priority. No plans to move to DITA in the short term. If a product has a requirement for this, then the product should open a new bugzilla for that requirement and explain why it's needed in the bugzilla. Won't be considered unless a consuming product needs this feature.
