Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Sun Resolver classes released
Norm, Briefly, what additional functionality do the sun resolver classes add to the arbortext classes you released last April (and Zirka's Saxon extension)? Here're my guesses: - support for OASIS XML Catalogs - easier hooks for Xalan - direct support for XP, independent of XT What have I missed? I plan to package the classes for debian, though it looks like they'll have to go into the nonfree section. BTW, sorry I missed the O'Reilly conference, family health issues required me to be elsewhere. Maybe next year...
