Peter,

I've had the same experience myself (combing through the list archives),
 and I've considered starting such a page on the wiki (see the
docbook-apps thread "customization layer for DocBook 5.0: The Transition
Guide") using a cookbook-style approach. Concrete examples are a great
way to learn.

I sort of dropped the ball--lots of things going on here at work--but
let's do it! I think others are interested too (Dick Hamilton, etc). If
you have access, Peter, go ahead and create a new topic page on the
wiki. What should it be called? DocBookCustomizations might work, but
it's sort of system-centered. Maybe DocBookCookbook ?

Cheers,

Brett

Hi,

I've wanted to browse through examples from other people's publishing
tool chains on many occasions over the past few years.  Today I spent
some time figuring out a particular xi:include technique and now that I
have it, I'd like to post it somewhere.  I see in the archives, this
subject has come up before.

Is there a more commonly used wiki for DocBook publishing techniques
than this one?

http://wiki.docbook.org/topic/FrontPage

If that's the one, is there a spot in it for posting miscellaneous
stylesheet customizations or other publishing tricks?  I don't see one
so unless there's a more appropriate wiki, I would create a new topic
for that.

Does anyone feel that miscellaneous publishing system snippets *should
not* be shared on the DocBook wiki?  Clearly, code from my stylesheets,
content, or publishing scripts will not necessarily work for anyone
else.  However, I learn best from concrete examples that I can modify
for my own environment.

Thanks for your guidance.

Peter Desjardins
