Hi.
In &lt;<a href="msg04594.html">10012071040.ZM18879@hoop.timonium.sgi.com</a>&gt;,

&gt; A recommendation is outlined below; I've extended this as to what
&gt; I think would comprise a good/valid MINIMUM set of elements for
&gt; a header area for LDP documents:
&gt;
&gt; ---
&gt;
&gt; if linuxdoc:
&gt;
&gt; &lt;title&gt;title of HOWTO, include &quot;HOWTO&quot; or &quot;mini HOWTO&quot;&lt;/title&gt;
&gt; &lt;author&gt;first_name last_name,
&gt; &lt;htmlurl url=&quot;<A HREF="mailto:email_address&quot">mailto:email_address&quot</A>; name=&quot;email_address&quot;&gt;
&gt; &lt;/author&gt;
&gt; * &lt;date&gt;v1.0, DD MMM YYYY&lt;/date&gt;
&gt; &lt;abstract&gt;
&gt; brief description of what the document covers
&gt; &lt;/abstract&gt;
&gt;
&gt; * unless a version tag is added; then split version out
If that (adding a new version element) will work for smooth
migration to the docbook, then I'll consider it. But it will
take several weeks or months since I'm being very busy recently.
Basically I feel reluctant to modify/extend the DTD itself on
linuxdoc, since I originally intend to maintain it just to keep
backward-compatibility. But I think the consensus on this list
wish to have the trans/tdate tag added in the linuxdoc dtd, so
I'm plan to integrate the separate linuxdoctr/linuxdoc dtd into
the new linuxdoc dtd.
(As a sidenote, xfree86 dtd which is developped based on the linuxdoc
dtd fro XFree86 documents, now accepts trans/tdate elements since
version 1.1.3 of doctools/xfree86. You can get it from ftp.xfree86.org
along with the XFree86 4.0.1 source. XFree86 doc team now also do their
effort to migrate their documents into docbook/xml, of course.)
For backward-compatibility purpose, I'll retain the support of
linuxdoctr dtd, but linuxdoc/linuxdoctr will be handled equally
in the future version of linuxdoc-tools.
(Please do not ask me &quot;when ?&quot; ;)
&gt; ---
&gt;
&gt; if DocBook:
&gt;
&gt; &lt;artheader&gt;
&gt;
&gt; &lt;title&gt;title of HOWTO, include &quot;HOWTO&quot; or &quot;mini HOWTO&quot;&lt;/title&gt;
&gt;
&gt; &lt;author&gt;
&gt; &lt;firstname&gt;first_name&lt;/firstname&gt;
&gt; &lt;surname&gt;last_name&lt;/surname&gt;
&gt; &lt;affiliation&gt;
&gt; &lt;address&gt;
&gt; &lt;email&gt;email_address&lt;/email&gt;
&gt; &lt;/address&gt;
&gt; &lt;/affiliation&gt;
&gt; &lt;/author&gt;
&gt;
&gt; &lt;!-- Additional author entries go here --&gt;
&gt;
&gt; &lt;pubdate&gt;DD MMM YYYY&lt;/pubdate&gt;
&gt;
&gt; &lt;revhistory&gt;
&gt; &lt;revision&gt;
&gt; &lt;revnumber&gt;v2.0&lt;/revnumber&gt;
&gt; &lt;date&gt;DD MMM YYYY&lt;/date&gt;
&gt; &lt;/revision&gt;
&gt;
&gt; &lt;!-- Additional, *earlier* revision histories go here --&gt;
I wish to have the additional &lt;revision&gt; element for translation
here for translated docbook documents. Can we agree on this ?
Translation maybe updated for the same original documents with
various reasons such as addition of local translation note for
some domestic status explanations or correction of translation
errors.
&gt; &lt;/revhistory&gt;
&gt;
&gt; &lt;abstract&gt;
&gt; &lt;para&gt;
&gt; brief description of the document
&gt; &lt;/para&gt;
&gt; &lt;/abstract&gt;
&gt;
&gt; &lt;/artheader&gt;
&gt;
&gt; ---
&gt;
&gt; More tags *could* be used (&lt;othercredit&gt;, &lt;titleabbrev&gt;, &lt;orgname&gt;,
&gt; &lt;copyright&gt;, &lt;authorinitials&gt;, &lt;revremark&gt;, etc.) and perhaps
&gt; more should be used, but I see this as being a *minimum* set of
&gt; tags that constitute a valid header area.
&gt;
&gt; Please provide comments. As David says, we should get these
&gt; guidelines into the style section of the LAG.
Good work, thanks for your effort.
