RE: [docbook-tc] Review of The Definitive Guide for 5.0

["Mary McRae" <mary.mcrae@oasis-open.org>]

... and, please ignore the first part of that message. I found the spec at specs/docbook-5.0-spec-cd-01.html

I do need it to conform to the latest templates along with the conformance clause, but am in the midst of getting everything else loaded and ready to go.

Have a great weekend!

Mary
