Yes, me, the Linux+IPv6-HOWTO.

Hint: use fix4, there are some bugs in previous version regarding the
generated SGML code (e.g. "colspec" tag and "<" chars in
code-formatted lines).

LyX file is available at (there are also some Perl tools there):

http://cvsview.linuxdoc.org/index.cgi/users/Peter-Bieringer/


and the exported SGML:

http://cvsview.linuxdoc.org/index.cgi/howto/docbook/Linux%2bIPv6-HOWT
O.sgml


and the LDP generated HTTP:

http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Linux+IPv6-HOWTO/index.html



Current pitfalls:

* left/right quoutes must be converted to normal quotes in SGML (Perl
tool available)

* URL encoding do not handle "&" chars proper, see posting to LyX
maillist yesterday. -> has to be fixed manually.
