PostgreSQL 7.4 Documentation - create/drop_operator.sgml

From
Halley Pacheco de Oliveira
Date:
In file create_operator.sgml is written:

Line 133: lefttype

Line 136: The type of the left-hand argument of the
operator, if any.

In file drop_operator.sgml is written:

Line 51: lefttype

Line 54: The data type of the operator's left operand;

The same applies to righttype. I think both should be
"The data type of the operator's left operand".

As soon as someone makes some.

If we knew how to do it, we would have done it already.

That's not hard.

I am totally unsure about my time availability at the moment (in-between
jobs and selling/buying houses), but I've got quite a lot of
SGML/XML/XSLT/DocBook/HTML experience.  Including the conversion to PDF,
PostScript, and so on.

I could see what it would take to convert the current documentation.  Or
has some DocBook person already stepped up?

Sarcasm doesn't become you.

Anyway, what would be acceptable?  I can understand that all the
necessary tools needed are definately not wanted in the repository.
Would a document with instructions on how to accomplish this suffice to
have people build the documentation themselves?  Along with the
appropriate make glue to get this done given all dependencies have been
met?

Documentation on how to do it would be great.  A script would be even
better, if you think it's completely automatable; but we can make the
script given the information.

We have the documentation and the make rules, we just don't have the
tools that don't crash all the time.

Sorry, I miss some background and context here.  What crashes for you
then?

Is this what we are looking for?

For me, using latest Debian tools and after fixing one bug in
docbook-dsssl (see attachment), I am now getting this error:

Certainly we've made it past that step before.  Since openjade issues a
segmentation fault, I don't think it's our fault.

OK, I should be able to invest some time in it this week (leaving on a
two week cruise next week, and after that it's company switching time
and also relocation time).

I'll keep you all updated.
