I don't know about XML doctype & what I have to do right now . please explain it in simple way and my work at all
I am not 100% sure what you're asking, so I will provide you with several answers:
1) If you are looking to contribute to documentation today, right now, there is no need to do anything with this information. Documentation is in DocBook today and as long as you use DocBook you will be fine.
2) If you want to influence how documentation will be written after the conversion to AsciiDoc, then please visit the wikipage and review the DocBook tags in the table. If there is a tag you feel like we should keep for whatever reason (typically consistency of presentation, signals to localizers, or automated testing) add the explanation in the third column.
If you're going to edit the table, don't forget that we don't want to recreate DocBook in AsciiDoc and so we want to try and strive for the smallest semantic markup tag set possible.
You may also want to read my blog post on this, which I just wrote:
regards,
bex

AsciiDoc is easier to write because it has fewer tags. It isalso easier because it has fewer keystrokes. However, it doesn't offera lot of options for marking up elements to:* ensure consistency of localization by passing element information tothe localizer* ensure consistency of formatting by ensuring all of the same elements,for example command names, are marked up the same way* allow for future automated testing with a project like `emender`I went through the Installation Guide and found 97 DocBook XML tags.I've put them in the table on this wiki page:Please visit the page and edit it to weigh in on preferences about thetags.I believe this will help us complete our AsciiDoc style guide and do theconversions more rapidly and effectively.Today, if you want to discuss implementation of these tags in AsciiDoc,please start a separate email thread.Thank you.regards,bex--docs mailing listTo unsubscribe:--docs mailing listTo unsubscribe:
