What is the new SUSE LLC employee provided to learn DocBook and the SUSE LLC documentation team's style in using DocBook?
Hi Patrick,
that's a good question, because it reminds me of some resources I forgot to mention earlier. :-(
Before I joined SUSE, I worked at Kolab Systems. The documentation for the Kolab Groupware Server was (but no longer is) written in DocBook, too. So I already knew some bits, but my knowledge was *very* limited. After almost 10 months at SUSE, I still consider my DocBook skills limited compared to my colleagues.
The first thing I was given to read when I joined SUSE was the DAPS user guide [1]. I not only read it but provided feedback and fixed errors I found during reading.
I have a curiosity. How about using LyX? As I remember, it includes docbook support, and it is WYMIWYG (what you mean is what you get). There is some visual indication of how the document is going to look (not fully). -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
