Does anyone have any generic suggestions/rules etc. for marking up text in
LinuxDoc (e.g. when adding FAQ entries).

For example, should <sect1> and <p> tags have closing tags?

Is there a certain set of tags for which minimization is preferred?  IOW, I've
seen a <bf> tags always as <bf/foo/ instead of <bf>foo</bf> in the parts of the
FAQ that I've seen.  Is that a general rule for <bf>?

If anyone has some guidelines, etc., I'll try to collect them, SGML'ify them in
DocBook, and see if Nik'll put them in the DocProj Primer.

Also, I was going to submit a FAQ for installing splash screens as well as
where to find them, mostly pulling from my splash screens gallery page.  Should
that go in Section 2: Installation or Section 9: X and Virtual Consoles?
