If GNATS were to be rewritten from scratch, XML metadata would certainly be the way to go, especially with XPath and SAX to play with for querying the docs. Still, GNATS has a good, fast little indexing application. Replacing the metadata with XML would be a major rewrite. You could step in to it incrementally by providing an XML export, perhaps. > Does anybody know of an XML DTD used for tracking bug/help requests? > I'd rather use one that someone else has standardized upon than roll > one of my own. Unfortuately, no. It would be wonderful if people would register their DTD's with some central registry database. -- Chad Walstrom <[email protected]> http://www.wookimus.net/ assert(expired(knowledge)); /* core dump */ _______________________________________________ Help-gnats mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnats
