/ Erik Price <erikprice@mac.com> was heard to say:

| nwalsh/print/docbook.dsl:1:73:W: cannot generate system identifier for
| public text "-//James Clark//DTD DSSSL Style Sheet//EN"

You probably need to make sure that there is a catalog entry for the
public identifier above.

No, you can process XML documents with Jade. You just need to use the 
XML version of the SGML declaration explicitly.

   jade [options] /path/to/xml.dcl yourdocument.xml

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
