I think so. It’s intended to be, but since it’s never been validated,
it’s possible I messed up :-)

The big changes, on a quick skim, are that an info wrapper is added to
all block elements that have just a title, elements with optional titles
(glossary, index, admonitions, etc.) all have explicit titles, external
glossaries, indexes, bibliographies, etc. are inlined (these are
features of the stylesheets, not DocBook per se, but pulling them back
inline simplifies formatting them), unparsed text elements from URIs
are inlined, and HTML tables get a tbody if one is missing.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
