Subversion 1.1 book? That would be nice.

The book has already been 'forked' on the svnbook website.  I started
documenting new 1.1 features last night, and hope to be done in about a
week.

In addition to documenting new features in their appropriate chapters,
my plan is to add a new section to the Preface (ch00.xml) that lists
then new features with relevant cross-references.  It would essentially
be a port of http://subversion.tigris.org/svn_1.1_releasenotes.html.

Actually, at first I was thinking of just highligting the parts by 
adding a red line in margin, but the the icon idea is great and much 
better, if it is used consitently, or a chapter or appendix describing 
the most important changes.

The source of the book is meant to remain a form ready for consumption
by the book's publisher, O'Reilly.

Ohohoh.  You don't mean literally highlighting, do you?  Ben, Fitz --
it would be *very* cool to have some sort of little icon thingamajig
that means "New to 1.1" that we could put in the book.  Let's scour
the docbook tags at our disposal and see what we can come up with
(I'll handle the stylesheet work if we find something we can use).
