MessageHi Dick, Thanks. I'll try it out with my website over the next few weeks. It would be good if it were an official release.

The good news is that it works, and Dave did some nice documentation that you can find here along with the schema itself: http://www.dpawson.co.uk/docbook/website/v5/ The bad news is that it hasn't been taken back into the official sourceforge repository. That is mostly because Dave and I ran out of cycles, and other commitments intervened. What we completed does work; I created a web site using it (http://rlhamilton.net), and Dave may have also used it for a website. Your bringing this up reminds me that we really need to take the steps required to get this into the standard distribution. That process may change some of what we did, but I hope not by much. If you try it out, I'd be interested in hearing how it works for you.

It hasn't been updated for some time (I think since 2.6.0 in 2005). Are there any plans to do so? Cheers John
