Re: The KDE DocBook Markup Reference Handbook

[Pat Costello <Patrick Costello ireland sun com>]

Gnomes, ladies and gentlemen, 

The KDE markup reference tome is indeed very handy. I especially liked the "Tags 
we do not use" section. My personal opinion is that we should have a Gnomic 
equivalent referece book. Also, I believe that Gnome style and Gnome markup 
should be clearly set apart in different locations. We should not mix the two 
reference sources. Style and markup are separate subjects.
