The TODO list is quite fluid, and I can't really see how sgml'ing it is going to get us anything. I can already generate decent html automatically, and a quick search/release or sed could convert those html tags to sgml, no? I maintain it as an ASCII file, and having tags on every item is going to be a pain. > > No point in putting these things into cvs in two places; we have this > content in sgml for previous releases already... I don't see the TODO list in sgml anywhere. What I could do is to keep maintaining it in ASCII, and generate html and sgml from that ASCII file. If you can mark up the todo list in sgml, I will map the html tags to sgml, and auto-convert to html and sgml when I change the file. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026
