Dear Reader,
Welcome to another issue of XML.com.
This week we return to a core XML use case: publishing. Not
so much the technical detail but the human and business processes
behind what author Michael Fitzgerald calls "agile publishing."
Have you fine-tuned your publication process to match the speed
of business today?
