Re: [docbook-apps] GSOC 2013

Hi Maduranga,

To work with Saxon-HE please refer to the official documentation [1] of Saxon

I think DocBook XSL by Bob Staylon [2] is a good reference book for the people who are new to Docbook. It contains how to use sxlt processors so if you found hard to work with them please refer to that chapter

If you want to go further (xslt customization) The DoCookBook [3] by Thomal Schraitle can be recommended

To learn about XSLT there are lot of article on the web so simply do a google search [4]

Hi all,
I'm a undergraduate from university of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka, Department of Computer Science & Engineering. I'm interested in working with DocBook project in GSOC 2013.

I have done a basic research on the DocBook project and has a basic knowledge about xml tags of the project. I know I have to learn about XSLT. Before going deep into the xml tags or XSLT, I would like to do some sample transformations and see how it works and get a proper foundation. I have installed Saxon-He. But I don't know how to work with it.

Can someone point me good examples and materials I must read to get a proper foundation.
