JoAnn Hackos gave the keynote presentation about DITA and localization, which was followed by Bill Hackos who presented on the factors go into a successful DITA deployment. Here are a couple of pics I took from my front-row seat:

My presentation followed theirs, and it seemed to go down well.

A few pics from the excellent cocktail reception party that was thrown by CSOFT the evening before the start of the localization summit.

As usual I couldn’t fall asleep during the long haul flight to Beijing, but I manage to persevere and basically stay up for two days straight.

I didn’t have much in the way of opportunities for taking pictures, but I did what I could.

This was taken immediately after going through customs, looking down on the monorail tracks that lead to the arrivals section of Beijing airport.

Once I got into the hotel (which is near “The Pants” building) the sun was setting, and I could still see a pair of workers who were working near the top of a nearby building under construction.

At the hotel I met JoAnn and Bill Hackos, who are the keynote speakers for the localization summit. Together we are taken out for a wonderful dinner.

Afterwards, I got back to the hotel and happily collapsed into my bed.
