Subject: RE: DOCBOOK: Would you buy the DocBook book?
Apologies for being so harsh. And I have nothing against DocBook or its documentation. I just don't feel that the community would be served well if the 2.0.2 version was hardcopied as is. I tend to buy books as references and I feel that the 2.0.2tar file of the TDG would give the wrong impression of DocBook if it were hardcopy. > -----Original Message----- > From: Dave Pawson [mailto:daveP@dpawson.freeserve.co.uk] > Sent: Tuesday, 30 October 2001 4:37 > To: Phillip Shelton; 'Poet/Joshua Drake'; docbook@lists.oasis-open.org > Subject: RE: DOCBOOK: Would you buy the DocBook book? > > > At 10:49 29/10/2001 +1000, Phillip Shelton wrote: > >It is in need of heavy review and editing.
