Re: Slides with Jade?


[ Followups to docbook-apps, please ]

Yeah, Xalan is broken. I've filed the bug report and started pestering
some of the developers personally. Hopefully this will get resolved
soon.

| Can I simply use a tool written in C with functionality closer to OpenJade, if not simply use OpenJade itself?

You could always use Daniel Veillard's excellent xsltproc.
