DOCBOOK: Re: et. al. in AuthorGroup

[Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com>]

/ Will Newton <will@misconception.org.uk> was heard to say:
| Is it possible to have a simple "et. al." in the author group - I have a 
| paper with about 20 authors and I really don't think it is necessary to list 
| them all.

If you mean in a bibliography entry, I think I'd do it like this:

<bibliomixed id="someid"><abbrev>SomeCitekey</abbrev>First Author,
Second Author, Third Author, et. al., <citetitle>The Title</citetitle>.
etc.
</bibliomixed>

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
