Hi there, I'm interested in maintaining DocBook 5 schemata plus some additional tools for docbook (daps and jing-trang). I've never maintained a package before, so I think the best way for me would be starting with DocBook 5. By creating the cygport file I run into some questions that I would like to address:
1) docbook-5.0 installation path All docbook-4.x files are installed in /usr/share/xml/docbook/<xml-dtd-4.5> and so on. With DocBook 5 the distribution format changed and there is now one folder with all necessary information: drwx------+ 1 holger Kein 0 6. Feb 2008 . drwx------+ 1 holger Kein 0 30. Mrz 16:39 .. -rwx------+ 1 holger Kein 3287 6. Feb 2008 catalog.xml -rwx------+ 1 holger Kein 46419 6. Feb 2008 ChangeLog -rwx------+ 1 holger Kein 430 6. Feb 2008 docbook.nvdl drwx------+ 1 holger Kein 0 6. Feb 2008 docs drwx------+ 1 holger Kein 0 6. Feb 2008 dtd -rwx------+ 1 holger Kein 1182 6. Feb 2008 README drwx------+ 1 holger Kein 0 6.

Feb 2008 xsd I propose to put the hole distribution under /usr/share/xml/docbook/docbook-5.0/ so everything is in one place. I also had a look at Ubuntu; they put the schema-folders (dtd, rng, schematron (renamed sch), xsd and catalog-docbook5.xml) under /usr/share/xml/docbook/schema and all documentation in their doc-structure. In my opinion, putting everything at one place would be the easiest way to work with. 2) docbook.cyglass Should I make use of the docbook.cyglass file? I think this one heavily depends on DocBook 4.x distribution. Bye & thanks, Holger
