The DocBook Wiki
Welcome to the DocBook Wiki.
Anyone can edit these pages. Yes, that means you! Unfortunately, in order to combat malicious vandalism, you now have to RegisterFirst and then ask one of the existing users listed on the UserGroup page to add your name to that page (UserGroup lists those users who have permission to edit this Wiki; AdminGroup lists administrators).
If you aren't familiar with Wiki concepts, please take a few minutes to explore the MoinMoin site and Wiki page.

Note: this wiki was resurrected from the ashes of its former self in early March, 2010. Apologies, in advance, for any lost edits. Everyone will have to RegisterFirst again as I have no way of retrieving the user names and passwords from the old wiki.
I believe I copied and updated all of the relevant pages from the old wiki. If you think I missed one, you can find them all in /oldpages.
Note that wiki markup has changed a bit between the old version of the wiki software and the new version. If you use one of the old pages as a starting point, make sure you check the markup.
If you have any trouble, let NormanWalsh know.
