20:04.13 brlcad so you're interested in converting the docs to docbook format..
20:04.30 brlcad how familiar are you with docbook?
20:04.35 digitalfredy brlcad: i like help whit the doc in
20:04.38 digitalfredy yes
20:05.14 digitalfredy brlcad: is the doc in pdf ?
20:05.28 brlcad depends which documentation you're referring to
20:05.34 brlcad there's a lot of it, in various formats
20:05.53 digitalfredy i read the IDEAS in the cvs/doc
20:05.54 brlcad most of the documents on the website are available in pdf and msword format
20:06.43 digitalfredy ok say me who is the most important for begin
20:06.50 brlcad the documentation in /doc is a mix of text, troff/nroff, manpages, etc
20:07.44 brlcad the most important "first" one is probably the "Overview of BRL-CAD" on the website, http://brlcad.org
20:08.12 brlcad 1, 2, and 3 there are by far the most frequently read
20:08.38 brlcad 1 is available in html, doc, pdf
20:08.56 digitalfredy brlcad: i can made all in one book
20:09.02 brlcad 2 and 3 are available as pdf and doc
20:10.04 brlcad digitalfredy: yeah, how it's all organized is a quesion in itself
20:10.24 digitalfredy you can send me the .doc's to my mail?
20:10.25 brlcad one massive "book", multiple books, articles, etc
20:14.14 digitalfredy brlcad: send me the .doc's my mail is digitalfredy@debiancolombia.org
20:18.17 brlcad digitalfredy: how about you start with just the overview one first and we see how well that works out
20:19.32 digitalfredy brlcad: ok i start with overview
20:20.23 brlcad are you familiar with tldp?
20:20.50 brlcad they have several docbook processing tools of interest, as does the gforge project
20:20.51 digitalfredy the linux documentation proyect
20:20.58 brlcad yes
20:21.33 digitalfredy and docbook is used for the linux kernel documentation
20:21.34 brlcad the gforge project has tools in their cvs that automates the processing of docbook quite nicely
20:23.17 brlcad yeah, docbook is great for technical docs -- just hard for editors expecting a decent editor :)
20:23.17 digitalfredy can you send me a reference of any document in particular?
20:23.49 brlcad gforge would be the first I suggest looking at, their entire documentation is docbook
20:24.38 brlcad http://gforge.org/plugins/scmcvs/cvsweb.php/gforge/docs/docbook/?cvsroot=gforge
20:25.56 brlcad they did theirs as one book, with the major sections as chapters if I remember
20:26.15 brlcad i'm slightly more inclined to produce multiple books
20:26.55 brlcad but even one book would work just fine
20:27.48 digitalfredy brlcad: i think in one book for becouse is best for example for made a package brlcad-doc
20:31.03 digitalfredy brlcad: i can to be slow becouse not speak englis veri well, if you not understand me, say
20:32.38 brlcad te entiendo perfectamente ;)
