Hello Jason and others,
it's difficult to build a dialogue or even to get in contact with you. Do I
expect too much, am I too impatient maybe? I'll give it another try, is it
usefull to continue converting the sgml man page documentation from sgml
docbook3 to xml docbook4? I have never been able to process the sgml docu
without patches on my distro (suse). In the new xml docbook4 format it's no
problem.
