Hi Jochen
Hi, Denis,
you are my diligent tutor! Thanks a lot for that!
According to 'DocBook 5: The Definitive Guide' (http://www.docbook.org/tdg51/en/html/info.html), article/info is not designed to appear in output:
Well, if it comes to processing and output orientation, I have never used to look at TDG4 resp TDG5 for the last 12 years or so, but "always" at Bob Stayton's book.
Maybe that was a fault.
On the other hand:
How "holy" are "Processing expectations" in the TDG?
It wouldn't really be against the spirit of a DocBook "article" to show the
author details,
if the user requested that on purpose,
or is this regarded as "simply incorrect" by the community and the gurus?
I mean for a "general purpose document" (be it of type "article"), what sense does that restriction make?
I hope, I do not unnecessarily restart old discussions. Maybe somebody points me at an ancient agreement on this matter.
================== Description
The info element contains meta-information about the element that contains it.
Processing expectations
Suppressed. ==================
So I think you need to use address in a different context if you want it displayed. The same DocBook design document /address.html) has this example:
[…]
Alright, I will definitely do this,
as long as I don't achieve it in the place, where I actually attempt to achieve
it.

I searched Bob's book for that (paper and online), but to no success.
I wrote a little document, and it's necessary, that it shows my address.
Any pointer pls?
Kind regards, J.
