Hi folks,

In anticipation of the TC meeting, I pushed the 5.2b09 release. Happy testing!

Iâve updated TDG to include the new elements, with some crufty prose. I
really need a description of the new elements and some examples to
demonstrate the proposed semantics.

It appears that refentry is allowed in sect1, so I think this is
completed. Unless Iâm mistaken.

Some of these have been implemented, some havenât. Iâll see if I can get
to it this week.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
