Points from one of my Lavacon slides: 20.   XML-based templates to set up more dynamic forms Template is validated by a schema, so when it is read into the form generator, the resulting form represents the features in the template as allowed patterns. Repeated elements = one or more Single element = one required (or optional - which will it be? can we switch?) Sequence is implicit in a set of elements unless one repeats, which indicates mixable sequence. Inner content should align with contentEditable. [text] conventions can represent placeholders and contextual help Use XML comments to represent semantics in their parent elements? Not all tools can parse comments though.

Not DITA Europe, but I did venture to speculate on Lightweight DITA for an upcoming DCL webinar on Sept 22 (no link yet). I'm open to key messaging that I should include at this point--this outline would be the party line for all imminent pitches any of us might have for the subject. Michael and Kris, you likely have some key elevator pitch points in mind. Why, for whom, value, concerns, how to play/participate, etc..
