Details! :-) Actually I had not quite reached this state... yet. Nor thought how to deal with actual HTML markup inside human readable sections.. or make it parsable.. It is more that I am wondering how to roughly go about this; in the perfect world I'd like the usual things 1. the XML to be close to the C code of the modules, auto extracting, whatever. Perhaps even -generate- C code based on it. Almost let it act like an interface description 2. it easy to make HTML of various flavours for the document tree. Hence allow for a fair amounth of making it look nice. 3. Easy(er) to cope with multiple language's without to much managment mess of paralellel publishing 4. Easy to re-use in the various configurators people are now making in Tk and Gnome. Or easy for validators or other clever things.. such as allowing mod_info. to display things even nicer.. And all of this of course happily at odds with the most important RQ of all 5. Easy for anyone to understand and to edit, contribute, and add to when needed. > Basically there is a bit of cleanup needed before it gets accepted by > a XML parser. Maybe half an hour more of work :-) That is for sure; and not quite the aim jet. Though I am really surprized how 'little' there is to change. Thanks for trying this ! > I would also swap all these uppercases to lowercase, but it's rather a > personal taste :-) Mine as well, but the apache doc's currently are almost all in caps. Dw PS: If this discussion gets any volume I suggest limiting it to the docs- and gui- lists. But for now new-httpd should be reasonable.
