Conglomerate (in theory) should allow you to edit any well-formed XML document, and I've been focusing on DocBook support. Unfortunately I say "in theory" because it's still fairly unstable and I don't get much time to hack on it these days :-( (New coders most welcome!) If there's anything Conglomerate needs to do to help the Fedora docs project (besides becoming more stable), please file "enhancement" bugs against it in bugzilla.gnome.org. > > It for uniform editing basically. > I don't know what you mean by this -- fedora-docs-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-docs-list
