There is nothing behind the name of the project. It means exactly what it is - just documentation samples in DocBook/XML 5.1 format :)
Short answer: to make things easy.
Long answer: An author has two projects: foponts and docbook pretty playout that both need to have some technical "near-real life" documentation samples to work with, that contains a bunch of markup features, with a complex structure and some text full of real continuous straightforward narration - not just a Lorem ipsum snippets.
Just drop me a line to [email protected] with a "docbook-samples" in subject line. I'm very curious to hear who really needs to use this project with DocBook/XML source files.
For an author's opinion the project is useful only for and limited to the following two cases:
- You are a contributor to an other author's projects foponts and docbook pretty playout and use this project as a git submodule.
- You want to evaluate how an author creates technical documentation itself, including his writing style, attention to details, information structuring and presentation, layout and design, etc. :)
