What is the correct usage for Docbook 4/5 for each type of link?
1. Links to another section within the same document:
Is this a <link> with the description to appear specified or an <xref> with the
section automatically rendered?
Yes.
2. Links to another book or article within the FDP:
Is this a <link> with the description to appear specified or an <xref> with the
section automatically rendered?
No. These work in a single documentation only. The best solution
currently available is using <ulink> with a link to the XHTML version of
the document at the FreeBSD website. The drawback of this is that it
hardcodes the URL into the documents. A more XML-friendly solution would
be olinking but it has never been configured and used in FreeBSD's
DocBook sources. It could be a longer-term target to change to that but
for now, <ulink> will do.
3. Should links to an external website use a <ulink> tag, an url=, and the
description to appear? For example:
<ulink url="http://www.wi-fi.org/">Wi-Fi alliance</ulink>
Yes.
