My rapid review of the rapid review found too little to bother with a
new posting.  Comments herewith:
1) Last line of first subsection, "What are Styles?": "styles means" ->
"styles mean" (plural subject, plural verb)
2) @ Gary, re note:  I suggest that parallel structure trumps verbs ...
3) Terminology in "Using Applied Styles Menu" (title and following
text): should that be "Menu"? I suggest that the correct name for that
control is "list box".
4) @ Peter H-B:  Figure 14, "Create a new style", shows menu option
"Modify" selected, but should show "New" selected.

I'm converting that chapter to DocBook 5 XML using FrameMaker 7 tonight as a homebrew project, along with a couple other Writer Guide chapters converted so far. I'll see what else that chapter needs.

The FrameMaker EDD's formatting is coming along fine, although there are some minor formatting flaws that need work. The non-normative DocBook 5 DTD seems to work OK with FrameMaker, and the deprecated material from my earlier DocBook 4.5 DTD/EDD files was mostly eliminated in advance of its being dumped in DB 5. Eventually, I'll get around to using the standard RELAX NG DocBook 5 and test its new features.
