Thanks for the update, Rudi. With RHEL 6.4 GA on the near horizon, does that change the build process for the release those docs?

Hi all --

Just a quick heads-up on Publican status. As some of you know, 3.1 has just gone
GA, and I hope to have it packaged shortly.

We have a couple of problems with the 3.x series on Fedora, and a couple of
implications for Fedora docs on top of that.

1. The big issue is still wkhtmltopdf. This is finally packaged well enough to
get it reviewed, so I hope to start that process shortly. In the meantime,
however, I plan to have the Fedora package depend on FOP. Publican will,
however, default to wkhtmltopdf where it is available. We should make therefore
make wkhtmltopdf packages available for Fedora docs folk to use in the meantime.

2. A bug has emerged on F18 in some of the XSL we use; this worked fine up to
now, and so it looks like a change in a dependency. We haven't isolated the
issue, but the workaround is simple and I'll include a patch in the version we
ship.

3. A while back, we overhauled the text of the Fedora brand; I have only
recently made this available for translation and will point translators to it.

4. When Publican 3 gets into the repos, we will either need to convert the
existing docs site structure to the new Publican 3 structure, or force all
writers and translators to stay on 2.8. Obviously, the former is preferable, but
will require a freeze on publication while this happens (should hopefully be no
more than a few hours)

I think that's it! Stay tuned...

Cheers
Rudi
