"DocBook is a general purpose schema particularly well suited to books and papers about computer hardware and software (though it is by no means limited to these applications). The Version 5.0 release is a complete rewrite of DocBook in RELAX NG. The intent of this rewrite is to produce a schema that is true to the spirit of DocBook while simultaneously removing inconsistencies that have arisen as a natural consequence of DocBook's long, slow evolution. The Technical Committee has taken this opportunity to simplify a number of content models and tighten constraints where RELAX NG makes that possible. The Technical Committee provides the DocBook 5.0 schema in other schema languages, including W3C XML Schema and an XML DTD, but the RELAX NG Schema is now the normative schema." />

The intent of this rewrite is to produce a schema that is true to the spirit of DocBook while simultaneously removing inconsistencies that have arisen as a natural consequence of DocBook's long, slow evolution. The Technical Committee has taken this opportunity to simplify a number of content models and tighten constraints where RELAX NG makes that possible.</p>
<p>The Technical Committee provides the DocBook 5.0 schema in other schema languages, including W3C XML Schema and an XML DTD, but the RELAX NG Schema is now the normative schema.</p>

</div>
</div>
<p>DocBook is general purpose XML schema particularly well suited to books and papers about computer hardware and software (though it is by no means limited to these applications).</p>
<p>The <a class="link" href="mailto:docbook-tc@oasis-open.org" target="_top">DocBook Technical Committee</a> maintains the DocBook schema. Starting with V5.0, DocBook is normatively available as a <a class="xref" href="#relaxng" title="???TITLE???">[relaxng]</a> Schema (with some additional Schematron assertions). W3C XML Schema and Document Type Definition (DTD) versions are also available.</p>
<p>The Version 5.0 release is a complete rewrite. In programming-language terms, think of it as a code refactoring.</p>
<p>This rewrite introduces a large number of backwards-incompatible changes. Essentially all DocBook V4.x documents will have to be modified to validate against DocBook V5.0. An XSLT 1.0 stylesheet is provided to ease this transition.</p>
<p>The DocBook Technical Committee welcomes bug reports and requests for enhancement (RFEs) from the user community. The current list of outstanding requests is available through the <a class="link" href="http://sourceforge.net/" target="_top">SourceForge</a> <a class="link" href="http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=384107&amp;group_id=21935&amp;func=browse" target="_top">tracker</a> interface. This is also the preferred mechanism for submitting new requests. Old RFEs, from a previous legacy tracking
system, are <a class="link" href="http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/old-rfes.html" target="_top">archived</a> for reference.</p>

Updated reference documentation.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Corrected a typo in the list of values allowed on the <code class="sgmltag-attribute">class</code> attribute of <code class="sgmltag-element">biblioid</code>: changed “pubnumber” to “pubsnumber” (note the “s”). This is consistent with its use as a replacement for the <code class="sgmltag-element">pubsnumber</code> tag that has been removed in DocBook V5.0.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Fixed a bug in the content model of the various “<code class="sgmltag-element">info</code>” elements. In previous beta releases, the title-related elements (<code class="sgmltag-element">title</code>, <code class="sgmltag-element">titleabbrev</code>, and <code class="sgmltag-element">subtitle</code>) were erroneously required to appear first. The requirement is only that they appear exactly or at most once, depending on the context.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Renamed the “<code class="sgmltag-attvalue">sgmlcomment</code>” attribute value of the <code class="sgmltag-attribute">class</code> attribute of <code class="sgmltag-element">tag</code>. There's no significant difference between XML and SGML comments and the “SGML” name implies that there ought to be an “<code class="sgmltag-attvalue">xmlcomment</code>” value, which there is not. The new value is simply “<code class="sgmltag-attvalue">comment</code>”.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Renamed the “<code class="sgmltag-attribute">class</code>” attribute of <code class="sgmltag-element">refmiscinfo</code>. The DocBook semantics of class attributes is that they have enumerated values. This attribute should always have been called “<code class="sgmltag-attribute">type</code>” as it is now.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Updated <code class="sgmltag-attribute">renderas</code> on <code class="sgmltag-element">bridgehead</code> and <code class="sgmltag-attribute">class</code> on <code class="sgmltag-element">othercredit</code> to have “attribute/otherattribute” co-constraints. (In other words, if you select “other” for <code class="sgmltag-attribute">renderas</code> on <code class="sgmltag-element">bridgehead</code> or <code class="sgmltag-attribute">class</code> on <code class="sgmltag-element">othercredit</code>, you
have to also provide a value for <code class="sgmltag-attribute">otherrenderas</code> or <code class="sgmltag-attribute">othercredit</code>, respectively.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Changed <code class="sgmltag-attribute">width</code> attribute in media objects to be “text” instead of “<code class="code">xs:integer</code>”.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Fixed bug in the build process that resulted in unusable XML Schema versions of beta&#160;2 and beta&#160;3.</p>

</div>
</div>
<p>In V5.0, DocBook has been rewritten as a native RELAX NG grammar. The goals of this redesign were to produce a schema that:</p>
<div class="orderedlist">
<ol type="1">
<li>
<p>“feels like” DocBook. Most existing documents should still be valid or it should be possible to transform them in simple, mechanical ways into valid documents.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>enforces as many constraints as possible in the schema. Some additional constraints are expressed with Schematron rules.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>cleans up the content models.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>gives users the flexibility to extend or subset the schema in an easy and straightforward way.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>can be used to generate XML DTD and W3C XML Schema versions of DocBook.</p>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<p>Under the ordinary operating rules of DocBook evolution, the only backwards incompatible changes that could be made in DocBook V5.0 were those announced in DocBook V4.0. In light of the fact that this is a complete rewrite, the Technical Committee gave itself the freedom to make "<span class="quote">unannounced</span>" backwards-incompatible changes for this one release.</p>

<h4 class="title"><a name="s.smaller.cm" id="s.smaller.cm"></a>3.17.2.&#160;Smaller Content Models</h4>
</div>
</div>
<p>The content models of many inlines have been reduced, sometimes drastically. The parameter entity customization of DocBook V4.x and previous versions resulted in very broad content models for some inlines.</p>
<p>Consider, for example, <code class="sgmltag-element">command</code> in DocBook V4.4:</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
command ::=
   (#PCDATA|link|olink|ulink|action|application|classname|methodname|
   interfacename|exceptionname|ooclass|oointerface|ooexception|
   command|computeroutput|database|email|envar|errorcode|errorname|
   errortype|errortext|filename|function|guibutton|guiicon|guilabel|
   guimenu|guimenuitem|guisubmenu|hardware|interface|keycap|keycode|
   keycombo|keysym|literal|code|constant|markup|medialabel|
   menuchoice|mousebutton|option|optional|parameter|prompt|property|
   replaceable|returnvalue|sgmltag|structfield|structname|symbol|
   systemitem|uri|token|type|userinput|varname|nonterminal|anchor|
   remark|subscript|superscript|inlinegraphic|inlinemediaobject|
   indexterm|beginpage)*
</pre>
<p>In DocBook V5.0, <code class="sgmltag-element">command</code> has a much smaller, more rational content model:</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
command ::=

  * Zero or more of:
      o <span class="emphasis"><em>text</em></span>
      o alt
      o anchor
      o annotation
      o biblioref
      o indexterm
      o inlinemediaobject
      o link
      o phrase
      o remark
      o replaceable
      o subscript
      o superscript
      o xref
</pre>
<p>DocBook V5.0 may be overzealous in its simplification of content models. The Technical Committee expects to adjust these simplifications during user testing. Users are encouraged to report places where formally valid documents can no longer be made valid because content models have been reduced.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<div class="titlepage">
<div>
<h4 class="title"><a name="s.unif.info" id="s.unif.info"></a>3.17.3.&#160;Uniform Info Elements</h4>
</div>
</div>
<p>DocBook V4.x has <code class="sgmltag-element">setinfo</code>, <code class="sgmltag-element">bookinfo</code>, <code class="sgmltag-element">chapterinfo</code>, <code class="sgmltag-element">appendixinfo</code>, <code class="sgmltag-element">sectioninfo</code>, etc. DocBook would be smaller and simpler if it had a single <code class="sgmltag-element">info</code> element in all these places.</p>
<p>There’s an historical reason for the large number of unique names: customizers might very well want to adjust the content models of info elements at different levels. For example, a copyright statement might be required at the book level, or an author forbidden at the sub-section level. In DTDs, there’s only one content model allowed per element name, so in order to support independent customization, each info element must have a different name.</p>
<p>In RELAX NG, no such limitation exists. We can use patterns to achieve both a single <code class="sgmltag-element">info</code> element while still allowing customizers to change its content model in different contexts. In light of this functionality, we've replaced all the various flavors of info with a single element name.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<div class="titlepage">
<div>
<h4 class="title"><a name="s.req.titles" id="s.req.titles"></a>3.17.4.&#160;Required Titles</h4>
</div>
</div>
<p>DocBook V5.0 enforces the constraint that titles are required on <code class="sgmltag-element">article</code>s and other large structures where they are effectively optional in DocBook V4.x. (They are optional only in the sense that DTDs are unable to enforce the constraint that they be present, the documentation has always made it clear that titles were required.)</p>
</div>
<div class="section" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<div class="titlepage">
<div>
<h4 class="title"><a name="s.req.version" id="s.req.version"></a>3.17.5.&#160;Required Version</h4>
</div>
</div>
<p>In DocBook V4.x and earlier, the presence of a document type declaration served as a mechanism for identifying the DocBook version of a document. Although the declaration was not actually required, it was present in the vast majority of DocBook documents.</p>
<p>In RELAX NG, no similar declaration exists. Although a document type declaration might still be present, it seems likely that this will not usually be the case.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, downstream processors may benefit from some indication of the version of DocBook being used. As a result DocBook V5.0 adds a new <code class="sgmltag-attribute">version</code> attribute which <em class="glossterm">must</em> be present on the document element of a DocBook document.</p>
<p>Mixing versions is explicitly allowed and the version attribute may be used on other elements as well. This might be the case, for example, in a compound document constructed from multiple documents each with its own version.</p>

<p>DocBook V5.0 adds a few simple data types. For example, the <code class="sgmltag-attribute">cols</code> attribute on <code class="sgmltag-element">tgroup</code> must be a positive integer.</p>
<p>Some of these constraints, such as the requirement that elements like <code class="sgmltag-element">pubdate</code> include a proper date-time type, may prove controversial.

</div>
</div>
<p>Starting with DocBook V5.0, the <code class="sgmltag-attribute">linkend</code> and <code class="sgmltag-attribute">xlink:href</code> attributes are available on almost all elements.</p>
<p>The <code class="sgmltag-attribute">linkend</code> attribute provides an ID/IDREF link within the document. The <code class="sgmltag-attribute">xlink:href</code> attribute provides a URI-based link.</p>
<p>The <code class="sgmltag-element">ulink</code> element has been removed from DocBook as URI-based links can now be achieved directly from the appropriate inline (such as <code class="sgmltag-element">productname</code> or <code class="sgmltag-element">command</code>). For instances where no specific semantic inline is needed, <code class="sgmltag-element">link</code> is still available. Where <code class="sgmltag-element">link</code> used to be limited to ID/IDREF linking, it now sports an <code class=
"sgmltag-attribute">xlink:href</code> attribute as well.</p>
<p>Support for <a class="link" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xlink11/#extended-link" target="_top">extended links</a> are provided through the <code class="sgmltag-element">extendedlink</code>, <code class="sgmltag-element">arc</code>, and <code class="sgmltag-element">locator</code> elements.</p>

</div>
<p>The DocBook V4.x markup for Tables of Contents, or more generally for Lists of Titles, was complex and had not evolved quite in step with the rest of DocBook. In DocBook V5.0, it has all been replaced by a quite simple, recursive <code class="sgmltag-element">toc</code>/<code class="sgmltag-element">tocdiv</code>/<code class="sgmltag-element">tocentry</code> structure.</p>
<p>While most Tables of Contents and Lists of Titles are generated automatically and authors never have to produce markup for them by hand, this simplified content model should make it easier for authors to generate them when necessary. One possible application of hand-authored <code class="sgmltag-element">toc</code> markup is to generate custom hierarchies which can be assembled on-the-fly from a library of topics marked up in DocBook.</p>

</div>
</div>
<p>Grammar based validation technologies (like RELAX NG) and rule based validation technologies (like Schematron) are naturally complementary. Mixing them allows us to play to the strengths of each without stretching either to enforce constraints that they aren’t readily designed to enforce.</p>
<p>For example, DocBook NG requires that the root element of a document have an explicit version attribute. Because there are a great many elements that can be root elements in DocBook, and because they can almost all appear as descendants of a root element as well, it would be tedious to express this constraint in RELAX NG. But it is easy in a rule-based schema language.</p>
<p>DocBook V5.0 uses Schematron where appropriate.</p>

<h4 class="title"><a name="s.custom" id="s.custom"></a>3.17.13.&#160;Customization</h4>
</div>
</div>
<p>From the very beginning, one of the goals of DocBook has been that users should be able to produce customizations that are either subsets of extensions of DocBook.</p>
<p>Customization is possible in DocBook V4.x, but because of the intricacies of XML DTD syntax and the complex and highly stylized patterns of parameter entitiy usage in DocBook, it's not as easy as we would like it to be.</p>
<p>In DocBook V5.0, we hope to take advantage of RELAX NGs more robust design (and it's lack of pernicious determinism rules) to make customization easier.</p>
<p>Three schema design patterns get us most of the way there.</p>

<h5 class="title"><a name="s.patnames" id="s.patnames"></a>3.17.13.1.&#160;Logical Groupings</h5>
</div>
</div>
<p>DocBook elements, particularly the inlines, can be divided into broad classes: general purpose, technical, error-related, operating-system related, bibliographic, publishing, etc. In DocBook V5.0, these are collected together in named patterns.</p>
<p>To add a new inline, <code class="literal">endpoint</code> for example, to the list of technical inlines, one need only extend the appropriate pattern. If an element should appear in several classes, they can all be extended in the same way:</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
db.technical.inlines |= endpoint
db.programming.inlines |= endpoint
db.os.inlines |= endpoint
</pre>
<p>Much the same concept was used in DocBook V4.x, where instead of patterns we had parameter entities. However, the constraints of DTD validation severely limit the circumstances under which an element can appear twice in a content model. That meant that adding an element to one parameter entity might make it an error to add it to another. Such constraints do not exist in RELAX NG which greatly simplifies the customization.</p>

<p>There’s an XSLT 1.0 stylesheet for performing conversion from DocBook V4.x to DocBook V5.0. Presented with a valid DocBook V4.x document, it attempts to produce a valid DocBook V5.0 document.</p>
<p>It succeeds entirely automatically for the most part, though human intervention is suggested for constructs that might have multiple interpretations (and therefore multiple possible transformations).</p>
<p>Users are encouraged to report documents that are not successfully transformed by the stylesheet, especially those which do have valid DocBook V5.0 representations.</p>
