Portland DITA group meeting

On June 12 I remotely attended the PDX (aka Portland) DITA meeting. (I used Google Hangouts, which worked surprisingly well.) It was hosted by the lively, friendly and technologically curious Jive Software Tech Pubs group.

Featured presenters were Sean Healy and Carlos Evia. They presented Sean’s DITA Open Toolkit plugin for HTML5 video, which is called OVID. They discussed using video with DITA, and gave in-depth demonstrations of how the OVID setup works. It was very interesting.

Video is something we are only going to see more of, and it behooves us to learn about it. More on OVID here, you can use it yourself:
