We rarely change these files, but I agree that the naming is confusing.
I run into the problem at release time, but have never gotten to fixing
it.  I'll see if I can do that today.

Thanks for bringing it up.

OK, I've updated the problem docbook pages at revision 22981.  Please
check it out.

Primarily there was confusion between sgml, dtd, and xml.  I changed the
titles of the dtd pages and made internal page changes to match.

Looks like all that happened whileI was I asleep !

Personally, I'd still prefer the full version info, so

pst/xml/docbook50.xml

over

pst/xml/docbook5.xml

so as to match

pst/xml/docbook51.xml

although I see that in the SGML directory, you've also kept the dot
between the major and mnor versions, so

pst/sgml/docbook-4.5-dtd.xml

as opposed to

pst/xml/docbook-45-xml.xml

and I still think that

1) the version number should come last (less of an issue than (2) )
2) as they are all DTDs, you either put the type of DTD
     in the name for all, or you don't, and you put the fact
     that they're a DTD in the name for all, or you dont.

For me, assuming you want the dot between the major and mnor versions

pst/sgml/

docbook-sgml-3.1.xml
docbook-sgml-4.5.xml

pst/xml/

docbook-xml-4.5.xml
docbook-xml-5.0.xml
docbook-xml-5.1.xml

The only thing that cares about the file names is the parent xml file. From the editor's standpoint, we can interpret the names, if needed, with or without the dot.

Note that the content of these files does not change.  They are not updated.
