[kde-doc-english] Docbooks in kde-workspace master

[Burkhard Lück]

Hi,

a few days ago the kde-workspace master docbooks were switch to use the new 
DTD 4.5 which should "Should fix build failures on build.kde.org" according to 
the commit log. 
Why was this necessary only for kde-workspace?

Our workflow so far is to update docbooks in master (tracked by scripty to 
trunk/l10n-kde4 for translation), which became either the new documentation 
for stable release (tracked by scripty to branches/stable/l10n-kde4) or was 
backported monthly in a stable release cycle.

This does not work any more for kde-workspace because of the DTD switch to 
4.5.

a) Translation teams can not generate language docbooks for kde-workspace any 
more (not even for a typo fix or spellcheck) with kdelibs master, this is only 
possible with frameworks

b) I have updated 2 kcm docbooks for kde-workspace, but can not run checkXML, 
because my devel environment has kdelibs master, not frameworks.
Pushing these updated docbooks to master would not work for translation, see 
no a). Push to the latest stable branch (4.11) is also not possible due to 
string freeze.

What happens if docbooks in other modules switch to DTD 4.5 / frameworks?
