Markup changes and a major pattern renaming.
This is the third release of DocBook NG:
Back by popular demands: numbered sections (
<sect1>…<sect5>) and numbered refsections (<refsect1>…<refsect3>).Updated to reflect the most recent technical committee decisions:
Added a
languageattribute to verbatim environments.Added a
floatstyleattribute to<figure>,<informalfigure>,<example>,<informalexample>, and<equation>(but suspiciously, not<informalequation>). This needs to be revisited in the committee.Added
<package>and<biblioref>.Added
<imageobjectco>to<mediaobject>; removed<mediaobjectco>.Added
spacingto<variablelist>.Allow
<superscript>and<subscript>in<gui.*>
Restored
<property>which had, for some reason, been left out of previous releases.Fixed a bug that prevented
<refentry>from occurring in many places where it should have been allowed.
Behind the scenes, a significant change in this release is a major renaming of the RELAX NG patterns. All of the patterns now begin with “db.” so cross-schema customizations should be more managable. It’s likely that there will be a few more significant renamings as I try to establish a useful naming convention.
I also removed a few patterns that seemed unnecessary in a RELAX NG world. I’ve basically given up on generating a parameterized DTD from the RELAX NG grammar, so attempting to preserve parameter entity extension points isn’t necessary anymore.
