[publican-list] RFC: Modified JBoss brand (was Re: RFE for Publican Brands)

[misty at redhat.com]

I've modified the JBoss brand and attached the modified version. I'd love it if some of you could build books using it and let me know what you think. Extract it to /usr/share/publican/Common_Content and call it from publican.cfg as JBoss-misty.

Just as the JBoss brand currently, the HTML versions do not currently sync with the PDF version. I didn't put too much effort into it (yet), because it obviously has not been a priority thus far. I'd like to get the changes synchronized to PDF, because I think they really help with printing.

I've also included a .zip of a built book in HTML-single, so that you can see it in action without having to build your own book.

If you get the Digest version of this mailing list and want to see the attachments, just ping me and I will send them to you individually.

Thanks,
Misty
