[docbook] Help advance DocBook standard

We loves YAML we do, we wants it for EVERYTHING.
Yess my precious, everything‼


DocBook is unlikely to switch markup language (again - it already did
once from SGML (lisp brackets) to XML), but the thought arises, could
YAML be suitable for such a task, or would inline markup (e.g.
specific words in a paragraph) be too much of a challenge?

Subject: [docbook] Help advance DocBook standard

The OASIS DocBook Technical Committee is looking for new members.


We invite you to join us as part of the longest standing committee
advancing the most downloaded standard at OASIS. DocBook is an XML
vocabulary for marking up text for publication in multiple output forms,
including print, eBook, web, and help systems. It’s an enduring standard
with a large installed based. DocBook has adapted to changing times and has
an excellent future.

Our TC is a cross-industry group of colleagues that develop the schemas for
DocBook (not the stylesheets or tools). We ensure that DocBook continues to
remain vital by adapting to new environments and standards, responding to
the changing needs of users, and growing the market for the standard.

Being part of the DocBook TC will enable your organization to:

- increase its visibility in standards development;
- influence the DocBook standard to include the features or extensions it
needs;
- improve interoperability with other standards in use.

As a participant, you’ll work alongside markup language experts, gaining
valuable experience in specification development, and enhancing your
visibility and credibility inside and outside your organization.

The time commitment is not great.  We meet once per month for an hour by
teleconference and perform various action items for research and
development between meetings.  Because DocBook is a mature standard, the
work centers around adding features, fixing bugs, and researching related
standards.

Of course, there is no additional fee for employees of OASIS members to
join the DocBook TC.  Others should contact [email protected] for details
on membership.


Feel free to forward this message to anyone you think might be interested
in advancing DocBook.



Regards,



OASIS DocBook Technical Committee Members
