XyEnterprise Joins OASIS and DITA XML.org to Help Drive CM Industry Standards Forward
XyEnterprise, developer of award-winning XML content management and multi-channel delivery solutions, announced that it has joined Oasis, the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards. OASIS is a not-for-profit, international consortium that drives the development, convergence, and adoption of e-business standards such as Extensible Markup Language (XML). XyEnterprise was one of the founding members of OASIS' predecessor organization, SGML Open.
Along with membership in OASIS, XyEnterprise became the newest sponsor member of DITA XML.org, the official community gathering place and information source for the DITA OASIS Standard. Joining the editorial board is XyEnterprise's Contenta Product Manager, Deb Boczulak. Ms. Boczulak explains, "XyEnterprise has been promoting the use of XML and component-based content management for years. We are excited to have the opportunity to influence the direction of the standards, and share best practices gleaned from customers who have been leaders in implementing content management solutions based on DITA and S1000D."
Darwin Information Typing Architecture, otherwise known as DITA, builds content reuse into the authoring process, defining XML architecture for designing, writing, managing and publishing many kinds of information in print and on the Web. The standard was originally developed by IBM for internal use, and then released to the open source community, now guided by OASIS.
"We are so excited to have XyEnterprise, one of the founding members of SGML Open, back as an OASIS sponsor, and as the newest member of the DITA XML.org community. With Xy's history in content management and publishing, along with innovation in standards-based solutions, we look forward to their contribution to the advancement of current and emerging standards," says Carol Geyer, Director of Communications for OASIS.
XyEnterprise offers a DITA version of Contenta, its flagship content management software, for managing global information across the enterprise. The company's DITA solution is already helping several multinational companies reduce translation costs, eliminate redundant content and expedite the delivery of information for multiple channels. 27.02.2007, Mary Parsons, XyEnterprise
