    Stefan,

    The dbxslversion PI on this version still says "snapshot" not "1.79.2".

    Is that part of the release process that got missed in the conversion to
    github?

    I'm proud to announce the availability of the 1.79.2 release of the
    DocBook XSL stylesheets.

    While this is a minor release only (with no new feature additions), it
    is a major milestone anyhow, which we have been working towards for a
    year: We have migrated the source repository from subversion
    (sourceforge.net) to git (github.com), with all the associated
    infrastructure (from issue tracking to continued integration).

    While there are no new features in this release, there are a few
    user-visible changes to note:

    * Packages will no longer be available from sourceforge.net, but rather
    from http://cdn.docbook.org/. (Specifically, the new release files can
    be found in https://github.com/docbook/xslt10-stylesheets/releases)

    * Online stylesheets are also served from http://cdn.docbook.org/, e.g.
    http://cdn.docbook.org/release/xsl/1.79.2/

    * As before, we provide two sets of stylesheets, with and without
    namespace support (for DocBook versions >=5, as well as for DocBook
    versions 4). However, instead of using the special suffix "ns" to
    identify the namespace-enabled stylesheets, we now use "nons" to refer
    to the stylesheets without namespace support. This implies that the
    "docbook-xsl-<version>" packages (as well as the online stylesheets at
    http://cdn.docbook.org/release/xsl/) refer to the namespace-enabled
    stylesheets !


    Any other changes are accidental and likely due to bugs, and should be
    reported (https://github.com/docbook/xslt10-stylesheets/issues).


    With this important milestone reached, we can now concentrate our effort
    on bug fixes and feature additions that flow into the next major release
    (1.80) sometime in the (hopefully not so distant) future.

    Best,

    Stefan

    No idea. Can you point me to the exact location where that PI appears ?
    I'll try to track down where that is coming from.

    Thanks,
