If you expect a table layout, why overload simple paragraphs with attributes? If it is going to be a table, then para is not right for the markup IMHO. It does not fit semantically and does not fit into DocBook either. BTW I have not checked, but I don't think docbook has a version attribute wh

Now as to the CHANGELOG, I am guessing nobody will implement it in DSSSL (I know I won't) so focusing on livedocs may end up happening. Livedocs or bust, 2004! Or 2005, 2006, 2007,. I don't mind focusing on livedocs, because I have some free time now. But I would like to have the oficial websi
