DITA version 1.3 was approved as an OASIS Standard. Review details about the new version and download links. See the press release with executive endorsements from Adobe, Cisco, Comtech, IBM, ISIS Papyrus, IXIASOFT, Oracle, PTC, and SDL. The OASIS DITA TC published a Committee Note entitled "DITA 1.3: Why Three Editions?" on 17 November 2015. To download the Committee Note, please see the announcement from OASIS . The OASIS DITA TC now sponsors three OASIS TC Open Repository open source projects: dita-lightweight, with content relating to the Lightweight DITA Subcommittee; and dita-rng-converter, providing cross-platform tools for generating DITA-conforming DTD- and XSD-format versions of RELAX NG DITA grammars; dita-stylesheets, featuring style sheets and other resources that can be used to build OASIS-styled publications from DITA source . See the links at OASIS TC Open Projects Sponsored by the Committee . Overview The purpose of the OASIS DITA Technical Committee (TC) is to define and maintain the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) and to promote the use of the architecture for creating standard information types and domain-specific markup vocabularies. DITA is specializable, which allows for the introduction of specific semantics for specific purposes without increasing the size of other DTDs, and which allows the inheritance of shared design and behavior and interchangeability with unspecialized content. For more information, see the TC Charter and FAQ . - Complete SC name including acronym, linked to Subcommittee’s public page - Brief statement of purpose, if neededSubcommittees The following subcommittees are active: DITA Help Subcommittee DITA Learning and Training Content Specialization Subcommittee DITA Technical Communication Subcommittee Lightweight DITA Subcommittee The following subcommittees are closed: DITA Semiconductor Information Design Subcommittee DITA for Enterprise Business Documents Subcommittee DITA Machine Industry Specialization Subcommittee DITA in Composite Environments Subcommittee DITA Pharmaceutical Content Subcommittee DITA for Technical Standards Subcommittee DITA Translation Subcommittee DITA for the Web Subcommittee TC Tools and Approved Publications OASIS Library for Approved Publications TC Wiki Issues Management (JIRA) Version Control (SVN) Version Control ( GitHub Repositories ) dita - Official repository for TC source files dita-lwdita - Source files developed and maintained in specializations edited by the Lightweight DITA Subcommittee dita-techcomm - Source files developed and maintained in specializations edited by the DITA Technical Communication Subcommittee - approved OASIS standards - specifications under development (the most recent version) - schemas - requirements - profiles - issues lists OASIS Standards and specifications should be listed primarily by highest order of approval, then by most recent version.

OASIS Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) Version 1.2 , OASIS standard, approved 1 December 2010. You also can download a ZIP file of the XHTML version of the spec from http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.2/os/DITA1.2-spec-xhtml.zip . OASIS Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) Version 1.1 , OASIS standard, approved 31 May 2007. A consolidated zip file with all specifications, DTDs, and XML schemas also is available. OASIS Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) Version 1.0 , OASIS standard, approved 1 June 2005. OASIS TC Open Repositories Sponsored by the Committee Contents of these OASIS TC Open Repositories are created by public contributions under an open source license designated by the DITA TC: dita-specializations - This repository provides storage for DITA specializations that were developed by the DITA TC, but which are no longer part of the DITA standard. dita-lightweight — Schema files, tools and documentation related to the Lightweight DITA Subcommittee dita-stylesheets — Supports development of style sheets and other resources that can be used to build OASIS-styled publications from DITA source dita-rng-converter — Providing cross-platform tools for generating DITA-conforming DTD- and XSD-format versions of RELAX NG DITA grammars: document type shells, vocabulary modules, and constraint modules. It makes it as easy as possible to develop and maintain DITA grammars by allowing use of RELAX NG syntax. ============================================the most useful and current supporting materials produced and approved by the TC, such as: - FAQ - White papers - User guides - Slide presentations - DatasheetExpository Work Produced by the Committee Committee Note, 17 November 2015: DITA 1.3: Why Three Editions?
