Not my intention - why does everyone think I am angry at them this week? Jeez. When you say the scripts are unmaintained I think you are wrong. Mark is the maintainer of DocBook Tools - DocBook Tools include those scripts. Instead of announcing you are going to maintain those scripts, why not ask Marks if you can send some patches to him or get cvs access to make some changes. You can see by the number of people already asking you for tarballs that this can cause a split in the project. I'd like to see more concentration on this project AND some new projects that do things differently. I would not like to see a project splinter and confuse. That is just my opinion. Again, I am not flaming you, I am not upset at you, in fact, throughout our conversations over the year - I like you.. I too want to see changes made to the scripts - hell I hack them up on my own machine and ignore the ones that ship anyway. Dave
