Another XML question
In mod_include I hvae a link that looks like:
<a href="mod_cgi.html">CGI</a>
What is the correct way to do this with the <module> tag?

+1. I guess it is possible to add a transform or two for href:s, should
one want to turn the xml into something other than xhtml.
The xhtml tags I really would like to keep out of our xml are the table
stuff (since they can be darned hard to translate into something else.)
But I guess that won't be possible...

Our format is based on xhtml. I don't see any reason to invent new markup
when good existing markup exists. Now, it might be nice to differentiate
between links internal to the apache docs, and links to external
resources, but I've been trying to limit the number of tags and options so
that we keep things simple.

Is really a good idea to use a html href? If we want to convert the xml
into something else (pdf, clay tables, what ever) it's probably easier if
we were to use some of our own markups.

I thought about that a little, and I think it is right the way it is. A
<module> tag designates the name of a module. If you want to link to a
module without using its name, an ordinary link is correct IMHO.
