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? svn path=/trunk/; revision=18538

+ Information is useless unless it's organized and accessible;
+ it's hardly even worth the name if you can't look at it and be
+ <emphasis>informed</emphasis>. The goal of
+ <application>Ximian Evolution</application> is to make the
+ tasks of storing, organizing, and retrieving your personal
+ information easier, so you can work and communicate with
+ others. That is, it's a highly evolved <glossterm
+ linkend="groupware">groupware</glossterm> program, an integral
+ part of the Internet-connected desktop.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ In other words, <application>Ximian Evolution</application> is
+ a tool to help you get your work done.

+ <para>
+ <application>Ximian Evolution</application> is Free Software. The

+ <application>Ximian Evolution</application> can help you work in a

+ for one person or for large groups.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ With <application>Ximian Evolution</application>, you can
+ accomplish your most common daily tasks faster. For example, it
+ takes only one or two clicks to enter an appointment or an
+ address card sent to you by email, or to send email to a contact
+ or appointment. <application>Ximian Evolution</application>
+ makes displays faster and more efficient, so searches are faster
+ and memory usage is lower. People who get lots of mail will
+ appreciate advanced features like <link
