From: &quot;Poet/Joshua Drake&quot; &lt;poet@linuxports.com&gt;
&gt; &gt;But what concerns me is that we have now &quot;lost&quot; the SGML for a guide
which
&gt; &gt;formerly had it. But maybe I'm getting ahead of myself here; we're
really
&gt; &gt;still trying to find out where it went. Maybe it's just not linked? Or
&gt; &gt;maybe Gerhard just hasn't sent it to us?
&gt;
&gt; The Securing and Optimizing guide is not, nor has it ever been SGML. It
is
&gt; written in MS Word.
&gt;
&gt; &gt;documents are only available in opaque formats. So whether or not we
&gt; &gt;&quot;require&quot; SGML, I am personally going to keep on asking for it.
&gt;
&gt; Great. But what does this have to do with SGML source for documents that
&gt; never had it? It would take entirely too much time and energy to develop
&gt; the SGML source for this guide.
&gt;
&gt; I wish it was in DocBook as well, but it will be some time; if ever for
&gt; that guide.
You're right. Sorry, my mistake. I simply forgot that it wasn't in SGML.
I spent some time, months ago, working on converting it to SGML. I
eventually aborted the project, so my mind played a trick on me --
reminding me that I had seen the SGML source of it when in fact it was
never completed.
