Members of the OASIS Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) Technical Committee create and manage technical content in this TC GitHub repository ( https://github.com/oasis-tcs/dita ) as part of the TC's chartered work (i.e., the program of work and deliverables described in its charter).
OASIS TC GitHub repositories, as described in GitHub Repositories for OASIS TC Members' Chartered Work, are governed by the OASIS TC Process, IPR Policy, and other policies, similar to TC Wikis, TC JIRA issues tracking instances, TC SVN/Subversion repositories, etc. While they make use of public GitHub repositories, these TC GitHub repositories are distinct from OASIS Open Repositories, which are used for development of open source licensed content.
The purpose of this repository is to provide version control support for development of source files for the written DITA specification.
As stated in this repository's CONTRIBUTING file, contributors to this repository are expected to be Members of the OASIS DITA TC, for any substantive change requests. Anyone wishing to contribute to this GitHub project and participate in the TC's technical activity is invited to join as an OASIS TC Member. Public feedback is also accepted, subject to the terms of the OASIS Feedback License.
Please see the LICENSE file for description of the license terms and OASIS policies applicable to the TC's work in this GitHub project. Content in this repository is intended to be part of the DITA TC's permanent record of activity, visible and freely available for all to use, subject to applicable OASIS policies, as presented in the repository LICENSE file.
Early commits for this repository begin with the source for all parts of DITA Version 1.3: http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/dita/v1.3/os/part0-overview/dita-v1.3-os-part0-overview.html
Version 1.3 source is updated with 1.3 Errata 01; both of these versions were orginally maintained in SVN: http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/dita/v1.3/errata01/os/complete/part0-overview/dita-v1.3-errata01-os-part0-overview-complete.html
From this point, GitHub is used for work on both DITA 2.0 and any other DITA 1.3 Errata.
