Re: [docbook] Sections in Colophons
Hi Bob,

Thanks, I think you're right on the reason, and I don't see any strong reason to ask for an RFE, so I won't.

I've used bridgeheads in the past, and only ran into this because I was generating DocBook from a script that created sections inside the colophon.  I'll just tweak the script to generate bridgeheads and all will be well (as long as the anti-bridgehead contingent doesn't come down on me:-).

Thanks,
Dick
