/ Karl Eichwalder <keichwa@gmx.net> was heard to say:
| Thanks for the proposal. IMO, it superfluous; "topics" are just
| sections. People should write a specialized stylesheet to process
| "help" sections.
I think there's a little more to it than that. And there is definitely
a lot more to it than that psychologically.
| Please, stay away from making DocBook more complex than absolutely
| necessary.
I hear you.
Be seeing you,
norm
