Who uses this standard? #219

Hi,

I would be interested to know about any projects/companies who are using this standard.

Since it has been devised by an O'Reilly employee I would assume that it is used internally by O'Reilly. Am I right in this assumption?

Best regards, Matthias

@meinbrodt, last time I spoke with the O’Reilly folks the project had been put aside somewhat. However, Bookalope supports it as an export format and I do work with customers who use HTMLBook internally.

O'Reilly still uses HTMLBook as the canonical source for most of its books, but the schema hasn't been actively reviewed or maintained in a couple years.

@hackermatthew, that’s good news! Who is the goto-person with whom to discuss fixes and additions to the schema?

hackermatthew commented 5 years ago

@jenstroeger , I'm happy to be the contact for discussions about changes to the schema. I can't promise to be quick about turnaround, and it looks like there are some long-standing issues and PRs that I should review at some point. If there are obvious improvements to be made, however, we'd like to incorporate them.
