Creating titlepage chunks for epub

    John Green posted a question on 3 December 2009 about how to create
    titlepages for epub, and now I'm at that stage. I have the following
    elements nested in a book info element:
    <subtitle>A strategic assessment of
    the vulnerability ofAustralia’s biodiversity to

    climate change</subtitle><authorgroup><author><personname>Will
    Steffen</personname></author><othercredit><personname>Andrew A

    I've been able to output this content in a web page using XHTML1_1
    stylesheets, but has any progress been made on developing epub stylesheet
    code that creates separate chunks for book titlepage recto and verso? Or do
    I need to experiment with the XHTML code to try creating chunks?
    Thanks,
