Re: [docbook] Where to place version and confidentiality notices

["B.S.Navin" <bsnavin@gmail.com>]

Hi Paul,

I too figured out the same elements : edition & legalnotice.

Just wanted to know if there is something better. The notice occurs
just once in the doc, inside the info element. But it is heavy with
all the para elements and the addtional formatting (which is not
required in this case). As for now, I have disabled the actual
legalnotice template to avoid its printing.

The XSL customization layer takes care of adding the notice to the
footer.content template.

Thanks
Navin
