I raised the priority of the ticket, so hopefully that will prod Randy
into action. Matthew has already attached a book diff.

On that ticket there is patch by Matthew with the commands update.

Randy has assigned that ticket to himself.  I can update quantum and
anduin anytime, but I haven't looked at the procedure to do that.
However, I can't imagine it being much different from what we have now.

Right, I'm waiting the DocBook-XSL-1.72.1 release (just few minutes ago was 
committed another bug fix into the extensions/ subdirectory)

What we should do as soon is possible is to update the sources to 
DocBook-XML-4.5 DTD, but that depend on having the package installed at least 
on quantum, and anduin.

Bruce, some timeline about that?

Also BLFS should close #2241 to allow editors to install the new DTD on their 
hosts.

Actually, anyone with commit privs can create a tag or branch.  It's
just a svn command away.

Is this still going to happen. Manuel is obviously going to drive any
changes, but I think any branches have to be created by Matthew or
Bruce.

I agree. But only the stylesheets/ subdir need be branched, not the full book 
sources. The XML code don't must be afected by the XSL update.

To work and test the new XSL code, just pull a fresh trunk working copy and 
then "svn switch"  stylesheet/ to the branch.

+1, because branches are cheap.

Yeah, I think that would be good. That way, any changes to the XML for
formatting won't interfere with changes for packages. Then someone
will just have to bite the bullet and merge together any conflicts.
Although, I'd really like to get as much of this as possible taken
care of before the release.

RFC: Create a new-rendering-tools branch

2007-02-08 Thread Matthew Burgess
Hi folks,

Do you think it's worth creating a branch so we can work on updating the book 
rendering infrastructure?  This way, if we can't get it sorted in time for a 
release we simply don't merge from that branch?  It also means that folks 
with an interest in this can contribute and relieve some pressure from 
Manuel.

I can install things on Quantum so that they don't interfere with regular book 
renderings, which should allow a side-by-side comparison to ensure we don't 
introduce any aesthetic regressions.

Regards,

Matt.
