DocBook XSL 1.66.1 released

​ ​​​​The latest release of the DocBook stylesheets has moved from the test release to production with version 1.66.1, available now from http://sourceforge.net/projects/docbook/.

An gracious member of the DocBook community also posted an RPM spec file at: http://www.madboa.com/geek/specs/docbook-style-xsl.spec.

To quote from the mailing list...

If you're running Fedora Core or Red Hat, it's easy to use:
   # the two wget invocations should each be on a single line; I
   # apologize for any line wrapping
   #
   cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
   # download the source, e.g.,
   wget http://umn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/docbook/docbook-xsl-1.66.1.tar.gz
   cd ../SPECS
   # grab my spec
   wget http://www.madboa.com/geek/specs/docbook-style-xsl.spec
   # build/install the package
   rpmbuild -bb docbook-style-xsl.spec
   rpm -Fvh ../RPMS/noarch/docbook-style-xsl-1.66.1-1.noarch.rpm

Fellow DocBook TC member Jirka Kosek also posted an older paper on the extensions used by DocBook stylesheets at: http://www.kosek.cz/temp/extensions-api.html
