Hi Benoît,
I want to inform you about Debian BTS report #685063 [1] for dblatex: it
is the question whether/how dblatex supports endnotes as an alternative
to footnotes.
As far as I know, dblatex only supports normal footnotes, and in
"DocBook: The Definitive Guide" I find endnotes mentioned as a fallback
solution when footnotes at the bottom of the page are not possible [2].
Thus I'd put this report into category "wishlist".
On the other hand I can understand the motivation to collect all
footnotes at the end of a chapter (or of the whole book), thus they
become less obtrusive. What do you think about the idea of adding
support for endnotes?
