I created an xml2rfc template, like those available on xml.resource.org, which I copy and modify for new drafts, and use the web version of the tool - and everything works well enough for me. I'm decidedly not picky about formatting, because I want to spend my time contributing content. Because sometimes the error messages can be cryptic, when modifying the XML tags, I frequently submit the document and generate HTML in order to bound the number of XML tags that can contribute to a problem. - Wes -----Original Message----- From: ietf-bounces@xxxxxxxx [mailto:ietf-bounces@xxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tim Bray Sent: Tuesday, July 07, 2009 12:26 AM To: Lars Eggert Cc: Iljitsch van Beijnum; IETF Discussion Mailing List Subject: Re: xml2rfc is OK ( was: Re: XML2RFC must die, was: Re: Two different threads - IETF Document Format) On Mon, Jul 6, 2009 at 12:18 AM, Lars Eggert<lars.eggert@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > since you asked: I have absolutely no problems with xml2rfc. > > I used to edit in nroff, which wasn't compatible with my brain, and I > used Joe's Word template, which works OK, but I prefer something > ASCII-based for collaborative editing (for svn, diff, etc.) > > I'm fully open to trying something new once someone creates a > different > ("better") tool, but until then, xml2rfc is OK.
