Re: DOCBOOK: cvs incomplete

[Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com>]

/ Michael Westbay <westbay@users.sourceforge.net> was heard to say:
| In trying to use the CVS version of DocBook (docbookx.dtd), I've run into a 
| little snag.  Nothing is in the docbook/xml/ent directory (other than 
| .cvsignore and Makefile) seems to be there.

The entities are in a separate directory in the repository. I really
need to improve the CVS documentation.

| I'm copying the iso-*.ent files from the docbkx412.zip archive, but shouldn't 
| these be in the sourceforge CVS?

They are in /xmlcharent

| Oh, I just looked at .ignorecvs in there, and *.ent are being ignored.  
| Doesn't that go against what the directory is for?  Is this a mistake, or 
| does everyone have to create their own ent files?  (readme.txt above doesn't 
| say so.)

They're ignored here because they are copied from another source.

                                        Be seeing you,
