xml2rfc-xxe 0.7.5 release: works with XMLMind 4.0.0

[Bill Fenner]

Hi everyone,

To go with my xml2rfc tutorial on Sunday, I updated xml2rfc-xxe to
work with XMLMind's latest release, 4.0.0.

See the wiki for installation instructions:

http://code.google.com/p/xml2rfc-xxe/wiki/Installation

Please let me know of any issues.

(If you installed 0.7.4, you should be able to use the xxe addon
manager to upgrade)

Hi.

XMLMind has released version 4.1.0. I tried to upgrade to it and for
some reason had trouble with the xml2rfc-xxe plugin; it wouldn't let
me do that.

I tried patching the "*addon" file to read 4.1.0, but that didn't get
me there. Is there some bit of magic required?

I also encountered this problem - it turns out that my working xxe is a
3.7 version.

Fred, did you find a workaround? Bill?

Unfortunately, a subtle point about how Google Code works (you can't
change a download after it's been up for a while) means that to fix
this, you have to change your addon path again. The new addon path
is:

http://xml2rfc-xxe.googlecode.com/svn/release/xml2rfc.xxe_addon

This version installs in xxe 4.1.0, and has some document formatting
improvements from Thomas Morin. An upgrade that handles the trust ipr
values is imminent but will be available as an upgrade via the addon
menu.
