If you have DocBook installed locally, you should have a file called
docbook.dcl, which contains the "SGML declaration" of DocBook, and
somewhere down contains this:
FEATURES
MINIMIZE
DATATAG NO
OMITTAG NO
RANK NO
SHORTTAG YES
So if you google for something like "markup minimization shorttag", you
can find more information.
For amusement, contrast this with the SGML declaration of HTML:
FEATURES
MINIMIZE
DATATAG NO
OMITTAG YES <-- This is why you can omit <body>, for example.
RANK NO
SHORTTAG YES
