Great :-)

DocBook XSL stylesheets are updated very frequently and each new release
comes with lots of bugfixes.
So compared to the production rate of the DocBook XSL stylesheets,
version 1.40 is a relatively old version.
Installing a non-packaged docbook-xsl >= 1.44 wouldn't break anything
and is easy.
Besides, I've patched the version I use at home, while waiting
for a bugfix. I'll send you the little patch if you agree to manually
install the last docbook-xsl release.

Great.
As you have noticed there are targets for many XSLT processors ;-)
I would like to check that the output is fine too, but there doesn't
seem to be any generated HTML output ? Could you please generate one ?

You're right, the print outputs are still generated through the DSSSL
stylesheets, and thus don't benefit from the XSL customization layers.
My personal print outputs are in the same state and that's why I didn't
put them online :-(
Hopefully through your docbook environment upgrade it seems that we can
have a full XSL chain for both HTML and printing outputs.
Just a precision, it seems that printing outputs are better when done in
PDF than in PostScript when working with XSL.
Since PDF is as much proprietary as PostScript, do you have any
objection to switching from PostScript to PDF outputs ?

I'll give it a try from tonight on with the XSL environment instead of
jadetex and see what I can come up with.
I'll try both XML->FO->PDF and XML->DB2LaTex->Tex->PostScript and put
both result online.
Cheers and thank you for the upgrade,
