Hans
will be a panelist for session C7 on authoring and content improvement.
This session will take place on Thursday, June 2, 12:00 PM.
"Content
Improvement Strategies for the Rest of Us" This Praxis panel
is about what you can do today without a massive investment in
infrastructure, recoding content, and professional services. Sure, we all
agree that lots of enterprise CMS and GMS technology is nifty. And we
think that all those standards for content and web services make for
great discussions and lively conferences. But at the end of the day,
technology and standards are merely enablers for disciplined practices by
committed staff. In this panel we will discuss practical ways to improve
the quality of source content and thus the transformations that come from
such information. Expert panelists are Helen Fawcett, Hans Fenstermacher,
and Ben Martin, each representing a different approach to better content.
Don DePalma from Common Sense Advisory will moderate the panel.
Hans
will also be the moderator for a session entitled, "A Matter of
Quality." This session focuses on how to measure the quality of
localized content. Session
