ANNOUNCE: new DocBook RPMs available




Dear DocBook enthusiasts,

I have incorporated the state of the art in DocBook stylesheets
(Norman Walsh's "modular stylesheets") into the RPM distribution.

These are much more complete, and look much better than what I had out
before.  The scripts still have the same names: db2html, db2dvi,
db2rtf, db2ps.  Notice that:

	HTML output now goes into a directory of its own, with the
	  root file usually called directory/book01.html

	The TeX path still has weaknesses in tables and <revhistory>

	The RTF output is probably the nicest for printing, but there
	  are no free tools to print RTF.  I have tried Applixware (an
	  MS-Word replacement from Red Hat), and it works pretty well.

The new packages (at ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/home/rosalia/) are
stylesheets-0.1-1c.i386.rpm and jadetex-0.56-0.i386.rpm, so you could
just do:

rpm -vv --upgrade stylesheets-0.1-1c.i386.rpm
rpm -vv --upgrade jadetex-0.56-0.i386.rpm

Here's the list of RPMs:

docbook-3.0-5.i386.rpm       sgml-common-0.0-4.i386.rpm
jade-1.0_1-3.i386.rpm        sgml-demo-0.0-7.i386.rpm
jadetex-0.56-0.i386.rpm      stylesheets-0.1-1c.i386.rpm
psgml-1.0.1-5.i386.rpm
