/ "Bob Stayton" <> was heard to say:
| One of my clients just reported to me that  "DocBook XML V4.2 is the current
| XML version of DocBook" according to the OASIS website:
|
| http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/

Sigh. These are weirdly orphaned pages from before the disasterous
Kavi switchover.

I sent replacements to the OASIS webmaster more than a week ago, but
nothing has changed. I'll try again.

| I know you have struggled with getting OASIS to change some of these pages,
| so I hate to reopen old wounds.  But that information is now over two years
| old, and it creates no end of confusion about the current DocBook version.
| Should I write to Karl Best about this situation?

I'm on it.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
