ok, I think the current stuff is now applicable (but requires some further

You can get an impression at <http://test.perlig.de/manual/>.
All of our XML source files got a PDF pendant _optimized for print_.
This is very nice. BUT, I think the biggest gain from PDF (and what most
users want) comes from having one big PDF file with the entire
documentation. There is probably a way to do that by assembling the
smaller ones with another program.
We can easily do that with our current build system. We will just need to
render all the single XML docs into one big XML doc. Then we can transform this
one doc into FOP and then into PDF. Probably we can use sitemap.xml plus an
easy XSL to wrap all the single docs into the big one. The transformation into
FOP/PDF should be similar to the current transformation of the single docs,
except for an index of contents and the linkage in the big file plus some other
nice features...?
Andre, sorry for my delay, I haven't forgotten this one :-) I'm just out of
time as always, but i promise to get at it at the weekend!
cheers,

The available languages thing is also very nice. Can you be a little more
specific about what changes we need to make to have that work?
Joshua.
