Re: [docbook-apps] XML Processing on a Mac

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

One suggestion:
For the stylesheets, the latest docbook5ns version is now in the DocBook 
snapshot area:

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/snapshots/docbook5ns-xsl-snapshot.zip

There isn't an official release of that set of stylesheets yet.
