Yes.

Does this means that Anakia checks for a specific DTD?
The only incompatible changes are the s1234 to section, but it should be
doable with a template.

Ok.

Ok.

Well, as for PDFs, we are discussing-working to make a single pdf file from
the site, I guess you might like it.
We decided in Forrest that the Docbook stylesheets were so crappy that it
was easier making our own on he much simpler document dtd.

UML diagrams are in the pipeline for Centipede.

As for other test results, Centipede also makes javadocs, jdepend results
and junit test results available in the doco.
It would be really cool to make a Centipede cent out of your dependency
checking...
but of course I'm talking of things that only I know for now, we will
continue this when the documentation is there ;-)

As for the skin, I'll do it today for Centipede and commit it in the POI
project, so you can easily see how it works.
