The Twenty-First Century Fox FAQ
Jenny is a rather mysterious lady, mainly because she's rather shy about herself. She works as an engine designer for the Lockheed-Martin-Textron Skunkworks down at the Kenedy Spaceport, in Kenedy Texas. An excellent pilot, she is also the part owner of Bali Hai Aviation school at nearby El Coyote field. It would seem that she's shy about her past due to an encounter with a not-so-nice boyfriend, but she's learning to open up to Jack.

Why SGML and DocBook?

The NTP FAQ and HOWTO
Well, I'm not getting paid for my work, so I tried to learn something new while writing this piece of documentation.

DocBook is just another monster that is used by even larger monsters like HP for documentation. Definitely it's also animal, because it's used by O'Reilly & Associates, Inc.

Do I have to switch from SGML or HTML to XML?

Frequently Asked Questions about the Extensible Markup Langu...
No, existing SGML and HTML applications software will continue to work with existing files. But as with any enhanced facility, if you want to view or download and use XML files, you will need to add XML-aware software as it becomes available. Authors should also read the Developers' Section, which contains further information about the internals of XML files. No, XML itself does not replace HTML: instead, it provides an alternative which allows you to define your own set of markup elements.
