Got as far as writing the release notes for a new #DocBook #xslTNG release before remembering that I'll have to sort out the new Maven Central upload API before I can actually release it. Oh, look, a cold beer and a comfy chair! Maybe tomorrow.

I think I've managed to (better) sort out media objects in #DocBook #xslTNG. Except now #XSpec crashes because there's no context node when the tests run. I'm going to leave that for another day.

DocBook xslTNG prerelease version 2.0.1 is out. I pushed this one to Maven as well, for my own convenience as much as anything else. I think I'm done with the major hacking and slashing, but I guess I should wait for the bug reports before I say that out loud.

DocBook xslTNG stylesheets version 2.0.0 (experimental). Rewrote localization. ✔ Appears to support Chinese now. ✔ All tests pass. ✔ Wrote some new localization tests. ✔ Updated documentation. ✔ Published release. ✔ Still 2022. ✔ Win. ✔✔✔ https://so.nwalsh.com/2022/12/30-xslTNG-200

Reports from the field eagerly solicited. Open a bug if you have trouble. On the one hand, there are a lot of changes, on the other I expect relatively few people actually make localization changes, so...

Zero failing tests. Now I can go back to writing documentation so I know what to break next 😜 #xslTNG #DocBook

This morning, 106 failing tests. Now, 8 failing tests. Bonus: for some failing tests, the new output is in fact better than the old output. #xslTNG #DocBook

All the #DocBook #xslTNG tests pass. Now just have to see if/how customization layers can modify generated text, check all 74 non-English language localization files (as best I can), write the documentation, and check on a performance regression. Not going to finish this weekend.

I am officially not having fun anymore. "78 failing tests." #DocBook #xslTNG #L10N
