Hi,
You could try putting the revhistory inside some
other element that also contains the general info. I think revhistory has
several possible parents. Then customize the revhistory template to check
its parent, maybe using a role attribute on the parent.

Subject: [docbook] <revhistory>
general content
I'm looking for
some ideas on how best to handle a markup conundrum.
I am using DocBook
4.5. I would like to be able to include content inside <revhistory> that
is not specific to any one revision. (We want to provide some general
information about how to read the revision history.)
I would prefer to
work strictly within the DocBook 4.5 content model and not add custom
elements. However, the DocBook 4.5 content model does not allow for anything
inside <revhistory> other than <revision>
elements.
Does anyone see a
semantically appropriate way to do what I want without extending the content
model?
