Hi, I am just getting started with SGML.
I'm primarily using Emacs/PSGML/nsgmls/jade/jadetex/pdfjadetex with the DocBook V3.0 DTD to produce documentation for C++ software development (user's guide and programmer's guide). I'm working on taking a C++ documentation extractor (doxygen, to be specific) and rewriting a backend for it to produce DocBook SGML documents. Please let me know if you have better ideas... I hate going down the garden path astray. Anyway, I'd be interested in ramping up my knowledge of SGML... slowly :). So if there is some **small** tasks that you think I could accomplish, please propose them to me. This will be the only time that I put both of my sigs down... just to give people a picture of who this new voice is. I'm not yet a package maintainer nor have I registered with debian... I'll get to that soon.
