Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Managing changes to the XSLT stylesheets

Assume you override the rendering of element A for whatever reason, based on version 1.68, and put that into a customization layer. Then you upgrade the official stylesheets to 1.73 which contain a new version of the template of element A. Thanks to your customization layer, you still use your (modified) version of 1.68. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka markus.hoenicka@cats.de (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de
