Having just marked up a shortish bib list for
the first time in docbook, a couple of questions
then a request for the more experienced to see
if its marked up reasonably.
1. Are initials such as Pawson JD marked up as firstname?
2. When a document being referenced is some periodical,
does the title get marked up as title or citetitle?
3. whats the difference between authorgroup and a series
of author tags (none is an easy answer :-)
E.g.
<bibliomixed><authorgroup>
<author>
<surname>Gill</surname>
<firstname> J M</firstname></author> <author>
<surname>Humphreys</surname>
<firstname> J A</firstname></author>
</authorgroup><title>Feasibility Study on a Braille Transcription
Service for Short Documents. </title>
<citetitle>Braille Automation Newsletter,</citetitle> <pubdate>Aug
1976,</pubdate><pagenums> pp 19-24.</pagenums></bibliomixed>
Others I'm unsure of
<bibliomixed><author>
<surname>Gill</surname>
<firstname> J M</firstname></author> <title>The Use of
Digitally-Stored Text for Braille Production.</title> <publisher>
<publishername>National Computer Conference,</publishername>
<address> New
York,</address></publisher> <pubdate>June 1976.</pubdate> Reprinted in
<title>Braille Automation Newsletter,</title> <pubdate>Aug 1976,</pubdate>
<pagenums>pp
6-10;</pagenums> and in <title>Sigcaph
Newsletter,</title> <publishername>ACM, No 20,</publishername>
<pubdate>July 1976,</pubdate> <pagenums>pp 21-24.</pagenums></bibliomixed>
Whatever ACM is, is that about right?
A publication from a conference proceedings, publisher or
???
Below I have a -republished type thing
'and in' etc. Can this be explicitly tagged,
or is it 'bent' to fit?

Thanks for any advice,
a docbook newbie (I hate bibs already)
