Release 1.1.2 is a maintenance release of the DITA Open Toolkit that fixes defects and makes patches based on release 1.1.1. Thanks to all who contributed fixes and new material for this release! One special thing to look for: Jennifer Linton has created a new installation document that you should try out — see the built versions in DITA-OT1.1.2/doc/installguide of your 1.1.2 download.
