Browsing Revisions of a Subversion Repository

Below is an excerpt from a post [1] by Ben Collins-Sussman on how to view a specific revision of a Subversion repository.

...for the *moment* you can browse old revs with this form:

        http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/!svn/bc/2000/trunk

..but don't count on this always working.

For example, to view revision 5 of the following repository:

https://newtonsplace.net/svn/rst2chm/trunk

use the following URL:

https://newtonsplace.net/svn/rst2chm/!svn/bc/5/trunk

Docutil DocBook XML Writer Updated

I finally got around to making some updates to the DocBook XML writer for Docutils this past weekend. The code and minimal docs can be found in the Docutils Sandbox here:

http://docutils.sourceforge.net/sandbox/oliverr/docbook/

Docinfo elements are the major missing/messed up piece, but most of it should work. I've used it to generate DocBook for the documentation for a couple of the jEdit plugins I maintain, and it worked just fine. Please give it a whirl and let me know what works or doesn't work for you.
