To do list for debiandoc-sgml
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Considering general trend towards XML and availability of XML conversion
tools such as debiandoc2xml within this package, the maintenance of
DebianDoc-SGML package will be very conservative and feature enhancement
are unlikely.  See README.Debian.  If you are starting new
documentation, please use Docbook XML.
