Re: DocBook pre-Release Notes
Yep I see that the double comma is gone but now there's a space between the name and comma. So a typical line in the credits section looks like: General Integration of Submissions: Egbert Eich , David H. Dawes , Ivan Pascal , Alan Hourihane , Matthieu Herrb Was that the intent? ___ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

No, but that was the effect. I just re-published without the space preceding the comma. If you want the semi-colons that are in the subsections removed, I can easily do that too. I just reproduced the original. But I agree that it does look a bit odd. John ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
Re: DocBook pre-Release Notes
Yeah I just went and looked. General Integration of Submissions: Egbert Eich, David H. Dawes, Ivan Pascal, Alan Hourihane, Matthieu Herrb Perfect! I'd get rid of those semis; they look simply awful. I'll look some more. Thanks though for being so prompt with this. --- On Thu 02/12, John Himpel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: John Himpel [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2004 20:22:08 -0600 Subject: Re: DocBook pre-Release Notes I just re-published without the space preceding the comma.

DocBook pre-Release Notes
Hi, I was going thru the Release Notes for 4.4 and I noticed that there are double commas in section 5,1 thru 5.4 where all the submitters names are. I also think the colon on the TOC after section 5 looks wild. Perhaps I am unfamiliar with the formatting of LinuxDoc but to me a colon should mean that the list directly follows, not that it points to a section. And btw, I like the little finger for a NOTE. Other than that John, I like it. ___ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Other than that John, I like it. Georgina, 1) The double comma is an oops on my part. I will publish a fix in about an hour. 2) The semi-colon in the TOC is just following mimicing from the official CVS version. titleNew Features, Enhancements and Updates:/title. 3) The graphics are standard DocBook graphics. I have seen some others for tip/note/warning/caution/next/previous/home/up that are much prettier than the standard issue DocBook ones, but the license prohibits their usage (GPL or GFDL). If you know a good graphics artist/designer, you can do some good stuff. For an example, you might look at https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install-guide/ch- intro.html. Again there are licensing restrictions with these, but they show what can be done. John ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
