[docbook] Re: DocBook Technical Committee Meeting Minutes: 20 May 2003

/ Elliotte Rusty Harold <elharo@metalab.unc.edu> was heard to say:
| When writing about XML in DocBook, I think I used the sgmltag element
| to indicate multiple things: element names, attribute names, entity
| names, notation names, etc. If we're going to change sgmltag, then
| reather than replacing it with half a dozen different elements,
| perhaps it should just be xmlname?

That's got the same "leading xml" problem. And note that sgmltag is
intended for all those things, that's what the class attribute is for.

                                        Be seeing you,
