Harvard Yard
It's pronounced "Hahved Yahd"...
Working on a very cool project at Harvard Business School Publishing this week! I seem to be flying a lot to Boston this year, with projects at Fidelity and Harvard, and I'm also a panelist at XML2006 (which will be in Boston this year)!

It's Official! DocBook v4.5 is now an OASIS Standard!
As of October 1, 2006, DocBook v4.5 is an official OASIS Standard! The voting went right down to the wire, as many of the eligible voters had neglected to vote at all. However, of those voting, the approval was unanimous!
In other cool DocBook news, the upcoming UBL v2.0 OASIS Standard submission will include the DocBook "editable source!" Nice to see that some of the other standards are using DocBook as the basis for their documentation!
