OK, a couple of more FYIs for everyone:

Entityrcs, as a concept, _are_ in fact still alive: we decided that they are a
pretty good way of assigning auxiliary (to SGML and catalogs) properties to
documents pertaining to a certain doctype or public ID so we made DocZilla
just reuse the concept. Therefore, while there are some subtle differences the
Synex entityrcs and DocZilla entityrcs look pretty similar as well, both
syntax-wise and keyword-wise.

On the other hand, the SSH stylesheets are not practically supported since
Gecko is completely factored around CSS. There's still some, albeit very
indirect, support for SSH though: you can convert from SSH to CSS using a
simple transformer program we provide on the DocZilla website. It's a very
simple tool and the author still needs to clean up the resulting CSS file
somewhat but it might help half-way in converting a long SSH stylesheet.
