Subject: RE: [docbook-tc] Review of The Definitive Guide for 5.0
Hi Norm, Sorry for the delayed response - it looks like we still need to do the actual Public Review -- according to your blog post on 7 Nov. DocBook 5.0 was approved as a Committee Draft but now I need the actual spec and DTDs, schemas, etc. so we can get over the PR hurdle. Once that's complete, we can move forward to Committee Specification. Thanks!
