Add meta element to info


Here is the first issue from Norm's list. He has proposed: PR 155, Add a general 'meta' element in info. The element would be <meta name= foo content= bar />, and would provide a mechanism for adding miscellaneous metadata in the content attribute, with a name attribute to specify its purpose. This PR implements the change suggested in Issue #153. https://github.com/docbook/docbook/pull/155 I'm in favor of this change. It adds a lightweight (empty) element to support capturing small bits of metadata that don't fit any of the other info categories. It's limited because the data has to fit in an attribute value, but I think that's ok. I've frequently needed something like this. Discussion? -- Bob Stayton [email protected]
