Hmm. Well we can use XSL whitespace preservation, but it won't affect newlines. The only thing that I can currently think of is to inject something like </para><para> in the generated intermediate DocBook XML whenever we encounter a newline in a description metadata field. Which is ugly. The other option, which is even uglier, is to allow DocBook elements inside the metadata. But, keep in mind that it's not just the man page that uses longdesc, but also the GUI. And your longdesc probably makes for a pretty big popup. :) My takeaway from this is that longdesc should really just be a "long description" of the RAs functionality, not full prose documentation detailing each and every aspect of the RA. Instead, you should probably document this on a page in the new Mediawiki website, and ultimately when we get proper docs for the RA, move that content there. Sounds like a plan? Cheers, Florian
