Since LFS started using docbook-1.78.1, there is a lot of unused data
in the stylesheet directory. Basically, a whole docbook-stylesheet is there, while we need only fo and xhtml (+ some common dirs). Each time we checkout the repo, we have to download this whole thing, which is by far the biggest part of the repo (~33 M). By removing unused cruft, this could be down to ~12 M. Of course, it would be even better to remove completely the stylesheets and use host ones (repo size down to 2M). but let's do this first, it is easier :) git-svn-id: http://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/LFS/trunk/BOOK@11778 4aa44e1e-78dd-0310-a6d2-fbcd4c07a689

- <listitem>
- <para>DocBook is an XML <xref linkend="w3c-xml"/> grammar to mark up
- papers and books and then process them with XML-related standards.
- It concentrates on structure and semantics, not layout.</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>DocBook Slides is an extension for DocBook to create
- presentation slides.</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>By nature, layout is part of a presentation but DocBook Slides
- still focuses on structure and semantics.</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>DocBook Slides uses almost the entire DocBook grammar and
- provides only a minimal set of layout-controlling elements.
- This keeps is simple and easy to use.</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>And still, you can copy-paste, use XInclude, etc.</para>

- <title>Using Namespaces</title>
- </info>
-
- <para>DocBook Slides uses a separate namespace for its elements.
- This has various advantages:</para>
-
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>It isolates the extension elements and the original
- DocBook schema does not have to know anything about them.</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>It also avoids name clashes and XML processors can easily
- distinguish between the two set of elements.</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>This modular concept makes it easy to extend the official
- stylesheets with specific processing.</para></listitem>

- <title>Easy to Learn</title>

-
- <para>If you already know and use DocBook, DocBook Slides is for you:</para>
-
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>You can use the usual inline and block elements when marking up
- your text, you only have to learn a few new markup elements.</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>Also, you may include DocBook fragments with XInclude.
- Imagine an important table that is part of your scientific
- paper and you also want to show it on a conference.
- You do not have to copy-paste it but you can just have it in
- one single file that you later include in both documents.</para>

- <para>The curently supported output formats are
- plain XHTML, S5 XHTML <xref linkend="s5"/>,
- W3C HTML Slidy <xref linkend="slidy"/> and XSL FO <xref linkend="w3c-xslfo"/>.
- In the future, support for other important
