DocBook

[edit]

Hi. I wrote a stub on Norman Walsh. Could you check that the facts are about right, as you seem to know something about DocBook history and related stuff? Specifically, I've seen him referred to as "creator of docbook" sometimes, but wasn't sure how correct that is. Thanks :) --Jonik 13:27, 26 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jonik,
Thanks for your note. DocBook was actually created by a group of people, and Norm in fact was not one of them. He got involved with DocBook a little later in its history. That said, he has since definitely become the driving force behind it and should get much of the credit for its continued success. I will make some edits to the page to try to clarify his role as best as I can.
