Reminder:
  <title>About dot-zero releases</title>
    <para>DocBook Project “dot zero” releases should be
    considered <emphasis>experimental</emphasis> and are always
    followed by stable “dot one plus” releases, usually within
    two or three weeks. Please help to ensure the stability of
    “dot one plus” releases by carefully testing each
    “dot zero” release and reporting back about any
    problems you find. </para>
    <para>It is not recommended that you use a “dot zero”
    release in a production system. Instead, you should wait for
    the “dot one” or greater versions.</para>

sheets" from

Added regression to EPUB specs:

Mauritz Jeanson: inline.xsl

            Fixed bug #2844916 (don't output @target if ulink.target is empty).

Keith Fahlgren: autoidx.xsl

            Fix a bug when using index.on.type: an 'index symbols'

1.75.2 release.

Mauritz Jeanson: other.xsl

            Modified the write.stubs template so that the section

            Fix two indentation issues: In the first case there is no
corresponding .RS
macro (Debian #519438, sf.net 2793873). In the second case an .RS instead of
the probably intended .sp leads to an indentation bug (Debian #527309,
sf.net #2642139).

Epub

The following changes have been made to the epub code since the 1.75.2 release.

Keith Fahlgren: bin/spec/examples/AMasqueOfDays.epub; docbook.xsl;
bin/spec/epub_spec.rb

            Resolve some actual regressions in date output spotted by
more recent versions of epubcheck

Keith Fahlgren: docbook.xsl

            Updated mediaobject selection code that better uses roles
(when available); based on contributons by  Glenn McDonald

Keith Fahlgren: bin/spec/epub_regressions_spec.rb; docbook.xsl

            Ensure that NCX documents are always outputted with a
default namespace
to prevent problems with the kindlegen machinery

Keith Fahlgren: bin/spec/epub_regressions_spec.rb;
bin/spec/files/partintro.xml; docbook.x⋯

            Adding support for partintros with sect2s, 3s, etc

Keith Fahlgren: docbook.xsl

            Adding param to workaround horrific ADE bug with the
inability to process <br>

Keith Fahlgren: docbook.xsl

            Add support for authorgroup/author in OPF metadata (via
Michael Wiedmann)

Keith Fahlgren: bin/spec/epub_regressions_spec.rb

            Remove <b> and <i> elements "discouraged in favor of style
sheets" from
XHTML, XHTML 1.1 (and therefore EPUB) outputs by changing html2xhtml.xsl.

Fixes bug #2873153: No <b> and <i> tags in XHTML/EPUB

Added regression to EPUB specs:

Keith Fahlgren: bin/lib/docbook.rb;
bin/spec/files/DejaVuSerif-Italic.otf; docbook.xsl; bi⋯

            This resolves bug #2873142, Please add support for
multiple embedded fonts


If you navigate to a checkout of DocBook-XSL and go to:
xsl/epub/bin/spec/files
You can now run the following command:

../../dbtoepub -f DejaVuSerif.otf -f DejaVuSerif-Italic.otf -c test.css
-s test_cust.xsl orm.book.001.xml

In dbtoepub, the following option can be used more than once:
-f, --font [OTF FILE] Embed OTF FILE in .epub.

The underlying stylesheet now accepts a comma-separated list of font file
names rather than just one as the RENAMED epub.embedded.fonts ('s' added).

The runnable EPUB spec now includes:
- should be valid .epub after including more than one embedded font

Keith Fahlgren: docbook.xsl

            Improve the selection of cover images when working in
DocBook 4.x land (work in progress)

Keith Fahlgren: bin/spec/epub_regressions_spec.rb; docbook.xsl

            Improve the quality of the OPF spine regression by
ensuring that the spine
elements for deeply nested refentries are in order and adjacent to their
opening wrapper XHTML chunk.

Keith Fahlgren: bin/spec/epub_regressions_spec.rb; docbook.xsl;
bin/spec/files/orm.book.00⋯

            Add more careful handling of refentries to ensure that
they always appear in the opf:spine.
This was only a problem when refentries were pushed deep into the
hierarchy (like inside
a sect2), but presented navigational problems for many reading systems
(despite the
correct NCX references). This may *not* be the best solution, but
attacking a better
chunking strategy for refentries was too big a nut to crack at this time.

Eclipse

The following changes have been made to the eclipse code since the
1.75.2 release.

Mauritz Jeanson: eclipse3.xsl

            Added a stylesheet module that generates plug-ins
conforming to the standard (OSGi-based) Eclipse 3.x
architecture. The main difference to the older format is that metadata
is stored in a separate
manifest file. The module imports and extends the existing eclipse.xsl
module. Based on code
contributed in patch #2624668.

Params

The following changes have been made to the params code since the
1.75.2 release.

Robert Stayton: draft.watermark.image.xml

for local resolution.

            Corrected refpurpose.

Norman Walsh: paper.type.xml

            Added USlegal and USlegallandscape paper types.

            Added note about specifying location as URL

Robert Stayton: docbook.css.source.xml; generate.css.header.xml;

            Params to support generated CSS files.
