I have a fair bit of experience with SGML (used to write DTD's before I moved
into web design) althought not with DOCBOOK per se. I don't think we want to
pub the entire gtk tutorial into our tree as it would be just too confusing.
Also, if I've intrepreted things correctly, the php project is using
docbook-xml rather than sgml and has broken the docs up into sections. This
make things simpler and easier on the authors, but introduces a few problems
in that not eveything permitted in SGML is permitted in XML.
How about I take a look at what needs to be done to convert to the
established php doc structure (so we can use their scripts :-)), and breaking
it into managable piece so we can add them to cvs as they are ready.
I should be able to get back to the list with an answer on this by mid week.
PS: Any comments, thoughts, suggestions from anyone familiar with the
existing php doc structures would be greatly appreciated.
