I can server as a mentor again. Me too. Here is a project idea: For years I have been using a stylesheet customization layer adding support for changebars (based on revisionflag). In its current form that simply adds visual markup to highlight the changed content. However, in my typical workflow I need to maintain versions of the document (OMG / ISO specifications) with and without changebars, which right now requires editing the document. What I'd like to suggest is a way to add an XSL parameter based on which the generated document is either * the original unchanged document * the changed document with highlighted changes * the changed document without highlighted changes. This is slightly non-trivial as the required XSL adjustments even touch indexing and TOC generation (since some content may be filtered out if is new or no longer there in a given version). In other words, I would like to produce old and new versions of my docs purely based on the revisionflag markup and an XSL parameter, rather than having to modify the sources. (I'll put the above on the wiki, but wanted to post it to the list, too, to inspire other people to post their own ideas. :-) ) Stefan -- ...ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin... - To unsubscribe, e-mail: docbook-apps-unsubscr...@lists.oasis-open.org For additional commands, e-mail: docbook-apps-h...@lists.oasis-open.org
Re: [docbook] Google Summer of Code 2015
Hi Stefan, Thanks for volunteering. Regarding the website, in about a week, if I get a few more interested people saying they can participate, I'll update http://docbook.xmlpress.net for 2015. Anyone is welcome to look at that site now. It has all of the information from our 2013 application, so you can browse around and get a sense of what GSOC is all about.
