Members of the OASIS Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) TC have published a proposal for a Subcommittee focusing on 'Enterprise Business Documents'. The proposal document presents a brief discussion of the increasing usage of DITA for a broad range of narrative business documents that has led to a proposal for a DITA Enterprise Business Documents Subcommittee. It includes preliminary goals of the committee, and a discussion of the rationale for each goal.

Wiki systems make it easy to edit documents online, which makes wikis a compelling tool for document collaboration. Current wiki formats, however, don't allow for the kind of reuse that the DITA was designed to enable.
'Wikis, Docs, and the Reuse Proposition' by Eric Armstrong of Sun explores the possibility of implementing DITA features using a combination of JavaScript and CSS. He suspects it can be done most easily using a Ruby-based Wiki like MediaCloth.
