Right, I'll fix this. |

I mentioned a reason for this in my email to the list on the new |
| 15 |
format. At this point, I'm more concerned with having a visual |
| 16 |
reference to the extensive history of commits to metadoc.xml. Also, as |
| 17 |
you said, any changes to metadoc run the risk of doing lots more |
| 18 |
damage than a change made to a regular guide. |

I've done a little bit of stuff in our XSL over the years, but only |
| 28 |
small changes. Nothing major. We definitely need someone who's |
| 29 |
completely comfortable working with all aspects of our XSLT. Alec |
| 30 |
(antarus) has been playing about with a copy of our repo for some |
| 31 |
design work; he might be able to contribute a patch or two as issues |
| 32 |
come up, if we ask really nicely. |
