Re: [Babeldoc-devel] Splitting Document with Attributes

[Bruce M. <br...@mc...>]

Stefan,

Can you and Jonathon Leech talk about this.  I would be interested in a 
general solution to the problem of handling attributes when documents are 
split / routed etc.

I have been using the 1.1 codebase extensively in a production project and am 
fairly sure that the configuration merging works according to design 
(hahaha).  But seriously, it seems to work ok for me.

I would suggest (hope) that you start using the 1.1 codebase - it is a lot 
more robust in a number of areas and especially in configuration. 

regards,
Bruce McDonald
