DOCBOOK-APPS: section subtitles in DSSSL print stylesheets

[Jens Emmerich <Jens dot Emmerich at encorus-le dot com>]

Hi all,

we use the DSSSL (still?) print-stylesheets here for Docbook-XML, albeit XSL
for html.

I just noticed the following: Subtitles are allowed as child of section and
as child of sectioninfo. The DSSSL stylesheets only consider the 2nd case.
Is this a feature? E.g., is subtitle expected to become deprecated as child
of section?

On the other hand there is $section-info$ only dealing with sect1..refsect3,
no section. Default is empty-sosofo. So there is no way to get section-info
on section other than defining a new $section-info$ right now? All the
others ($sect1-info$ etc.) produce empty-sosofo as well, but can at least be
defined. Of course, there's an obvious name clash with the missing
"$section-info$". What can be done?

OK, subtitle is dealt with explicitly in $section-title$, there's no problem
here.

Are there any plans to integrate this db31 stuff properly?
Shall I provide a patch to support subtitle without *info-wrapper?
Do the stylesheets aim at implementing the "Formatting expectations" in TDG?
I guess one needs also (element (section subtitle) (empty-sosofo)) then,
correct?

So far,

Jens
