Re: [xdi-editors] questions about browser-viewable copies on xdi.org
If I try this:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="" href="http://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/DocBook/spec-0.4/stylesheets/oasis-specification-html.xsl">http://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/DocBook/spec-0.4/stylesheets/oasis-specification-html.xsl"?>

I get a blank page in Chrome, and the following error in Firefox:

Error loading stylesheet: An unknown error has occurred (805303f4)http://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/DocBook/spec-0.4/stylesheets/oasis-specification-html.xsl

the stylesheet can be found publicly here [1]. we could point to that while we are drafting.

Joseph, it sounds like you and Markus are in violent agreement on this. Who do we need to contact at OASIS to "make it so"?

We still should ask OASIS to host a copy of (or symlink) the DocBook installation from
www.open-oasis.org, the server where uploaded drafts live. That would allow us to always use the HTTP form of the stylesheet reference, preferably from a fixed well-known relative address that
 might even let us leave out the domain name and make it domain independent.

I'm just not sure about #3.

The stylesheet references in Github are currently very chaotic, sometimes it's this:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" 

href="" href="http://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/DocBook/spec-0.6/stylesheets/oasis-specification-html.xsl" target="_blank">http://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/DocBook/spec-0.6/stylesheets/oasis-specification-html.xsl"?>

Sometimes it's this:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" 

href="" href="http://xdi.org/xdi-spec-docbook/htmlruntime/spec-0.6/stylesheets/oasis-specification-html.xsl" target="_blank">http://xdi.org/xdi-spec-docbook/htmlruntime/spec-0.6/stylesheets/oasis-specification-html.xsl"?>

Sometimes it's this:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" 

href="">

And sometimes it's this:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" 

href="">

I understand they all work or don't work under different circumstances, but we should have a rule for which one we use in Github, Kavi,
xdi.org etc., and stick to that rule consistently in all specs.
