I guess it might if you already know your way around both formats. I didn't see anything in the documentation I looked at that made it obvious. If I wanted to translate a chapter of the French version of Trotsky's History of the Russian Revolution I wouldn't immediately think I needed to start at the preface or first chapter. > What's troublesome is the "nesting too deep" error.

The makefile in the mess offered at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/trac/browser/tags/en-1.4-final/src/en/book/ Knows nothing about generating version.xml that kendall spoke of. The book is not in the tar.bz2 of subversion, and apparently there isn't a package of just the book in some common setup where one might run make version Putting the book directory into toplevel/doc/book (Where the tools directory is also located) Is what I'm messing with now. If I get it figured out how one is expected to work with this stuff I may eventually have something worthwhile to report. However its not really very likely because I am a complete novice in nearly all elements of this. If I try to follow the HOWTO.docbook provided in the doc directory I will have to find and hand compile every library since the creation of the universe, so that looks like a non-starter. For now I'm still not getting how to accomplish the most basics stuff. I see you've asked Noah to join in and I'm trying to follow along with his suggestions.
