I have no previous experience with callouts, other than looking at how they're used in "DocBook:TDG." My chief concern with callouts would be the impaired-reader issue. How, if at all, do callouts affect readers who, for instance, are visually impaired and use audible reader software? I would think that if there is a way to avoid callouts that does not make the document overly cumbesome, it would be wise to do so. Can you post your sources somewhere, and post a link to the list? Perhaps then people could suggest an alternative method. If none can be found, then we should develop a standard. I tried finding previous content in f-docs-l, but the mailing list archives are exceedingly unfriendly to searching. I searched "callout," any match on substring in any section, and *nothing* was returned. At the very least, both of Thomas' messages should have been returned. Maddening, I tell you! -- Paul W.
