- DITA and Oxygen
  The Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) specification defines a set of document types for authoring and organizing topic-oriented information, as well as a set of mechanisms for combining, extending, and constraining document types. It is an open standard that is defined and maintained by the OASIS DITA Technical Committee.
- Localization and memoQ
  Many people think that localization is mainly connected with translation. But technical writing may be closely related to it as well. Localization, in this case, is the adaptation of your documentation to the culture of the targeting country.
