I've just had a look at this.  The shifting of "...done" down on to its
own line I can understand (if that's what the output actually looks
like).

But what's the <blockquote> for?  This isn't <blockquote> material.  If
the formatting needs to be changed then it should be a change made in
the stylesheet, not the documentation itself.  Changing the markup to
affect the presentation is not the right thing to do.

Also, some of the other changes you've made to other files are line 
wrapping changes where the original output would not have been wrapped
like this (contrib/chapter.sgml is an example, I think).  Again, this
might require a rethink of the stylesheets (perhaps dropping the size
of the left indent) rather than an alteration of the content to fit.

Cheers,

N
