Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : docbook5
  Version         : 5.0~b5
  Upstream Author : OASIS
* URL             : http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/5.0b5/
  Description     : DocBook 5.0b5

DocBook is general purpose XML schema particularly well suited to books and papers
about computer hardware and software (though it is by no means limited to these applications).

Note: Even though it's still a commitee draft, it seems that 4.x has
been fully deprectated everywhere, and 5.0 should be used. The question
is if the debian packages should be forked into an 5.0 release, or that
it should ba en normal update.
As of 5.0 docbook IS docbook-xml, as sgml is dropped.
