Thank you very much for your contribution. One of us will get around to 
looking over it and ensuring the license issues are addressed. I don't 
think we can include the docbook stylesheets in SVN for example. This 
isn't a problem, we recently identified a way of distributing plugins 
that cannot be released in binary form from ASF hardware.

In the meantime, if anyone wants to work on this plugin (i.e. convert 
the properties to the new 0.8-dev property system) please join us over 
on the dev list where we ca provide you with guidance.

[OFF TOPIC] Nigel, I notice you are from Aberystwyth Uni. I find myself 
in that part of Wales now and again, in fact I applied for a job at your 
Uni a few years ago. Lovely place to walk and to relax, I imagine it is 
a great place to live too.
