Having not been able to get out of writing some documentation (:-), I decided to go once more into the breach with Docbook, 'cause although I've puttered around with it, I've never actually produced anything significant.
I just want to say thanks to everyone working on this stuff, because it works quite well. First, Norm, the simplified docbook stuff is a godsend. It does everything I need it to do for most documents (no books in the pipeline right now :-), and it's pared-down enough to be quickly comprehensible. Second, Mark, Norm, Ardo, and everyone else, the work you've all done to get this stuff to Just Work is superb. I decided to work with the xsl stylesheets, and after installing xsltproc---which works great by the way, at least in my limited testing, so you might want to revise some of the comments about xt and saxon in the README files---all I had to do was run: xsltproc /usr/lib/sgml/stylesheet/xsl/docbook/nwalsh/html/docbook.xsl jumpstart.xml > jumpstart.html And I had some reasonable HTML output with no real effort. That's some great work, guys. Thanks a lot. Mike.
