10:00 - 10:20	Video Presentation Slides	Markdown support in Oxygen - George Bina George Bina - Syncro Soft Oxygen provides support for Markdown, but unlike other Markdown editors it supports Markdown from an XML perspective, focusing on using Markdown in XML-based workflows. We can leverage Oxygen SQF functionality to use Markdown syntax as an entry point to learn an XML markup language by automatically recognizing and converting different Markdown structures to a specific XML format.
10:20 - 10:40	Video Presentation Slides	Multimedia support in Oxygen - Sorin Carbunaru Sorin Carbunaru - Syncro Soft Multimedia content is essential for modern systems and Oxygen provides support for rendering video and playing audio files directly in its user interface. It also offers a graphical editor to create interactive image maps for DITA, DocBook, TEI and XHTML documents.
10:50 - 11:10	Video Presentation Slides	How to create an enjoyable authoring experience - Discover the Lightweight DITA authoring experience and how it is done - George Bina George Bina - Syncro Soft Oxygen provides special support for Lightweight DITA, designed to show how the authoring experience can be tuned for a group of people without technical knowledge, hiding the underlying XML structure and providing inline placeholders and hints, actions, allow to edit properties, etc. We explore the user perspective and then show also how this authoring experience can be created.
11:10 - 11:30	Video Presentation Slides	How to create an enjoyable authoring experience - Alex Jitianu Alex Jitianu - Syncro Soft Oxygen provides different ways to enable creating a controlled authoring experience, to allow people to create structured content without previous training to learn the actual XML structure. Join us to discover how to approach customizing the authoring experience and some of the new functionality Oxygen provides to facilitate this.
11:30 - 12:00		Coffee Break
12:00 - 12:40	Video Presentation Slides	Introducing the new Oxygen Collaboration Platform - Cristian Talau, Alexandru Jitianu Cristian Talau, Alexandru Jitianu - Syncro Soft Discover a new product from Oxygen that allows you to share and collaborate easily on XML documents.
12:50 - 13:30	Video Presentation Slides	Can the Oxygen XML Web Author work with my documents? - Cristian Talau Cristian Talau - Syncro Soft Explore available connectors for different repositories, discover the available API for integration and see different integration examples.
13:30 - 15:00		Lunch Break
15:00 - 15:20	Video Presentation Slides	How to integrate Oxygen XML diff and merge tools - Octavian Nadolu Octavian Nadolu - Syncro Soft When different contributors work on the same set of XML files, using a versioning system (like Git or SVN) or just a collaboration platform, they need a tool to visualize and merge the changes. Most of the diff/merge tools are not using an XML comparison algorithm to determine the differences. Oxygen offers tools to compare and merge files using XML diff algorithms. During this session you will see: three-way XML comparison integrating the Oxygen XML diff as external tool merge directories using the merge support form a plugin
15:20 - 15:40	Video Presentation Slides	Schematron business rules checks and corrections - Octavian Nadolu Octavian Nadolu - Syncro Soft Discover the latest additions to the Schematron and SQF support in Oxygen and the new support for business rules checks and corrections added to the Oxygen XML Web Author.
15:40 - 15:55	Video Presentation Slides	Oxygen and Saxon JS - Alex Jitianu & Sorin Carbunaru Alex Jitianu & Sorin Carbunaru - Syncro Soft Saxon-JS is the successor of Saxon-CE, but its implementation and support is different, it runs only Saxon compiled stylesheets. As Oxygen updated its support for Saxon to work with the latest version, we considered also users of Saxon JS and we enable you to compile stylesheets to be used with Saxon-JS.
15:55 - 16:10	Video Presentation Slides	Continuous integration using Oxygen command line tools - Alex Jitianu & Cristi Talau Alex Jitianu & Cristi Talau - Syncro Soft Some of the Oxygen functionality is made available also in the form of command line tools which can be used as part of CI processes to enable automatic checks, generating reports and automatic publishing. Join us to discover how you can use these tools from continuous integration systems.
16:10 - 16:30	Video Presentation	Oxygen in Localisation: Status Quo and Future Directions - Soroush Saadatfar, David Filip Soroush Saadatfar, David Filip This session presents a real-life localisation project, where a web page will be localized (translated and adapted) in accordance with conventional steps of the industry. The major focus of the session is XML Localisation Interchange File Format (XLIFF), an OASIS standard generally used for data exchange among the localisation steps. We will demonstrate the XLIFF framework of Oxygen Editor which has been recently empowered with an advanced validation platform in accordance with the latest XLIFF development. We will also introduce the FREME project which intends to enrich the digital content by harvesting the available data on the web (e.g. DBpedia). Finally, the possible integration of FREME into Oxygen will be discussed to highlight how the Oxygen Editor could benefit from such integration.
16:30 - 17:00		Coffee Break
17:00 - 17:10	Video Presentation Slides	Enhancing Oxygen XSpec support - Alex Jitianu Alex Jitianu - Syncro Soft A key requirement for an XSLT project is the ability to write unit tests because these tests ensure that you don't alter existing functionality during the project's lifespan. The XSpec framework is a great tool for writing these tests, which is why we integrated it into Oxygen a few years ago. Recently, a new XSpec version was released (0.5.0) and we have also integrated it into Oxygen. In this presentation, you will see how you can take this support even further through an Oxygen plugin.
17:10 - 17:30	Video Presentation	XML <=> DITA without Transformation - Patrik Stellmann & Vanessa Kastmann Patrik Stellmann & Vanessa Kastmann XML is widely used to store almost any kind of data. It is very suitable for automated processing but somewhat cryptic to edit manually. DITA is widely used for technical documentation and there is great support for visually editing and publishing to various formats. This presentation will show an approach to combine these two standards. That is, to apply DITA tools (i.e. Oxygen for visual editing and DITA-OT for publishing) on non-DITA XML documents without the need to implement a transformation for it.
17:30 - 17:50	Video Presentation	Handling masses of identifiers in DITA - Patrik Stellmann & Vanessa Kastmann Patrik Stellmann & Vanessa Kastmann Almost any modern integrated development environment - including Oxygen - provide great support for dealing with identifiers within source code. When writing documentation or functional specifications for software it is likely to use several identifiers as well. But currently DITA provides only very limited support for handling a large amount of identifiers. This presentation will show an open-source custom extension (DITA-SEMIA) that enables the use of identifiers within DITA documents in a similar way as when writing source code.
17:50 - 18:30	Video Presentation Slides	New in Oxygen version 19 and future plans - George Bina, Alexandru Jitianu, Cristian Talau, Octavian Nadolu, Sorin Carbunaru - Syncro Soft George Bina, Alexandru Jitianu, Cristian Talau, Octavian Nadolu, Sorin Carbunaru - Syncro Soft Get a preview of the new functionality that will be available in Oxygen version 19 and let's discuss what else do you need and what other things are on the roadmap for Oxygen.
