Following up: I'm using the FDP toolset for some original internal
documentation. After Mr. Swearingen's input, here's what looked
reasonable to me:
My original document's book.sgml has its copyright as normal. Then
there's this:
---
<legalnotice>
<para>PostScript, PDF, and HTML formatting for this document has
been generated with the FreeBSD Documenttation Project toolset
to which the following copyright and legal notices
apply:</para>
</legalnotice>
<legalnotice>
<para>Copyright © 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001,
2002 The FreeBSD Documentation Project</para>
</legalnotice>
&bookinfo.legalnotice;
---
The FDP copyright isn't in <copyright> tags because that lists it at the
top of the page along with the document copyright, and ISTR it's in a
second <legalnotice> just to generate more of a break from the paragraph
above it. (I think it should all be in one <legalnotice>, but nsgmls -s
choked on &book.info.legalnotice being inside another <legalnotice>. I
will probably retype the &bookinfo.legalnotice; to put it all together.)
The abstract page comes out with the title, author, copyright, and
abstract. Then this credit/copyright statement is shown farther down
the page.
I think this covers the bases, or at least it's a start.
