I think <port> is definitely easier for authors but everyone at the Doc summit seemed to think that we (FreeBSD docproj) were extending DocBook gratuitously. In a perfect world people would write tools that completely implement specifications but since we're not there yet we have a much better chance of getting the FreeBSD Handbook into places like the KDE Help Center and other apps if we don't extend DocBook too much. KDE and several of the other projects are going in the opposite direction of subsetting DocBook, while we're adding to it. - Murray On Wed, Jul 25, 2001 at 07:34:24AM +0200, Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai wrote: > -On [20010725 02:30], Nik Clayton (nik@freebsd.org) wrote: > > [<port> element] > > >I'm beginning to think this might be better as a role on filename, > > > > <filename role="port">net/racoon</filename> > > > >or similar. > > Agreed, since we always refer to ports as a compound of two things: > > category/portname > > and it is part of the filesystem's directory/file structure.
