RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Experiences as Authors

[Stephan Wiesner <stephan at stephan-wiesner dot de>]

Hi Arno,
Doesn't the use of xinclude make the writing hard? Like I write chapter
one and want to reference chapter two. My editor would have to resolve
the xlink in order to validate that link. It can't do that, so I would
have to switch the editor?
