Paul, thanks *so much* for this tip. We've recently been acquired, and
my department has been informed by the new Powers That Be that we will
need to make the move to Epic/DITA in the near future. I Googled the
subscription information for Adepters
and I'll be forwarding the info to my team members. Thankfully we've
been allowed to complete our current projects in our familiar tools
(else we'd probably not make our deadlines). But in the near future
we're going to need all the resources and free expertise we can find
as we make the move to an unfamiliar toolset. Our group had already
been investigating single-sourcing solutions, we just thought that we
were going to move to AuthorIT before (suprise!) we were suddenly
acquired last fall.
