Hi All
We've accumulated a number of bug fixes and patches since 8.6.5 so I think
it's time to get them out there, hopefully in a week or so.
If there are any issues that need attention please post a message.
And while I'm at it, a big shout out to Lex Trotman for his sterling work on
the mailing list -- thanks Lex.
Great! Will the new release include Jean-Michel Inglebert's excellent
improvements to the Slidy backend?
See http://csrp.iut-blagnac.fr/jmiwebsite/slidy2/slidy2_doc.html
Jean-Michel Inglebert's slidy improvements are impressive.
Rather than put them in the AsciiDoc core distribution my preference would be to
package them as a user installable backend, to this end I've committed a patch
that will allow custom backends to be distributed as filter plugins:

For example, here's a modified version of Jean-Michel Inglebert's slidy packaged
a as filter plugin called slidy2:
$ unzip -l slidy2-1.0.zip
Archive: slidy2-1.0.zip

It can be installed with:
asciidoc --filter install slidy2-1.0.zip
And now the slidy2 backend can be used just like a built-in backend:
asciidoc --backend slidy2 mydocument.txt
This mechanism can also be used to override built-in backends.
The same patch extends the asciidoc --conf-file option so that it can load
arbitrary configuration files packaged in filter plugins.
Cheers, Stuart
