Hi Marcello, This is just wrong paradigm. I have to make a superior system to improve the system. Yet, I can not improve the instated system. Even if I wanted to I have to work through the files and figure out how things are being done. A little more guidance is necessary. How about pointing those that want to help to some information of how you want the RST implemented so that it works with the tools in place and will to convert to the other formats. RST is extendible as you know. So when I convert to I use my own extensions or are their extensions that I should use instead! regards Keith. Am 02.02.2012 um 00:24 schrieb Marcello Perathoner:

I suggest you consider putting a stop to this RST experiment and step back and come up with some kind of plan that can possibly succeed.
I'm surely not doing that.
Instead of trying to prevent other people (me) from implementing their ideas and visions, you should come up with your own (possibly better) ideas and visions and implement them. When you've done that we may compare notes and maybe ditch some of the worse ideas we had.
As it stands now, you are just complaining and have nothing to offer instead.
Re. the use of a VCS, I've finally decided to use hg and have already set it up on pglaf.org. Over the next days I'll redo some of the older and more popular texts in RST. I will then patch the epubmaker at gutenberg.org to pull RST directly from hg@pglaf.org.
Everybody who wants to participate and is not afraid of RST and a VCS can send me their RSA public keys so I can give them SSH access to the repos.
Everybody who thinks that RST and/or a VCS are bad ideas, is encouraged to implement their own (possibly better) ideas as an individual or a group. Just stop the fruitless complaining and get your act together.
