All sgml files replaced with xml files. XML files validated. Two new XML
2002-11-04 Aaron Weber <aaron@ximian.com>
* C/*.sgml: All sgml files replaced with xml files. XML files
validated. Two new XML files added: apx-fdl.xml and legal.xml
* C/evolution-C.omf: Altered to fit the GDP template. This may now
work with the GNOME 2.0 DTD, although I could be wrong.
* sgmldocs.make: removed and replaced with xmldocs.make. This will
break all translations until they are also ported to XML. I will
probably begin doing that tomorrow, since it's just markup and not
language stuff.
* C/Makefile.am: added two files to the list. Does this
Makefile get included in another, somewhere, or is it just
detected?
