Tom,
Honestly, for German I don't mind yet if it is XML or SGML. XML might
be better in future for maintenance tools.
Anyway, I figured out there is another argument for XML:
My information is that DocBook 5.0 won't support SGML anymore.
Which means - sooner or later a reaction is needed.
Susanne
P.S.:
Btw. I change <foo>whatever</> into <foo>whatever</foo> when it
is in the parts which I am translating because my emacs indent don't
like </>.
