I handle upstream release tasks for some DocBook Project releases (the DocBook XSL Stylesheets and some others), and I'm writing to invite anybody who has an interest in DocBook-related packages for Cygwin to subscribe to a new "docbook-packagers" mailing list I recently set up: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/docbook-packagers I set up the list to provide a forum for discussion among downstream packagers of DocBook Project releases and to give the DocBook project a means to directly communicate with downstream packagers as a group. Packagers and others from the Mandriva, Debian, Fedora/Red Hat, and MacPorts are already subscribed to the list. Subscribing to it won't obligate you to actually do anything. It's just a way for you to stay informed about upstream DocBook releases. I anticipate that it will be very low-traffic. I understand that since the time when Marcel Telka was maintaining the Cygwin docbook-xml and docbook-xsl packages, the packages have been orphaned. For anybody who might be considering adopting those packages, I just want to let you know that were you do so, you'd have my full support to help in whatever way I can with any issues or questions you might have -- and you'd also have the docbook-packagers mailing list to turn to for getting help from packagers for other distributions/projects. --Mike -- Michael(tm) Smith http://people.w3.org/mike/ http://sideshowbarker.net/
