I'm not sure I agree the guidelines should be incorporated. These have nothing to do with the debiandoc-sgml itself, but more with how the documentation should be written (for instance, using debiandoc-sgml). If we switch to another DTD and/or set of tools, the guidelines should still be applicable. Integrating the "How to get started ..." is a good idea. I've already copied the ddsample.ta.gz as well as printed the proposed TOC. I was already planning on extending the debiandoc-sgml manual, so this might be a good starting point. > Here's packages that got moved down cause there's nothing substative > there yet.

Could that be made blank or whatever, since I orphaned them.

[snip] > * Debiandoc-SGML Markup Manual Although not maintained within the DDP CVS are, it probably still would be nice to have it on the pages, together with the gidelines (see above). Maybe we simply have to put it under the DDP CVS instance so I can update it when a new release of debiandoc-sgml is done.
