Typical markup:

        recovery.conf           <filename>

non-ASCII characters            find using grep -P '[\x80-\xFF]'
                                convert to HTML4 named entity (&) escapes

        we cannot use UTF8 because SGML Docbook does not support it

        do not use numeric _UTF_ numeric character escapes (&#nnn;),
        we can only use Latin1

        Example: Alvaro Herrera is &Aacute;lvaro Herrera

wrap long lines

For new features, add links to the documentation sections.

 <title>Release Notes</title>

 <para>
  The release notes contain the significant changes in each
  <productname>Pgpool-II</> release, with major features and migration
  issues listed at the top.  The release notes do not contain changes
  that affect only a few users or changes that are internal and therefore not
  user-visible.
 </para>

 <para>
  A complete list of changes for each release can be obtained by
  viewing the <!--<link linkend="git">-->Git<!--</link>--> logs for each release.
  The <ulink
   url="http://www.pgpool.net/pipermail/pgpool-committers/"><literal>pgpool-committers</literal>
   email list</ulink> records all source code changes as well.  There is also
  a <ulink url="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=pgpool2.git;a=summary">web
   interface</ulink> that shows changes to specific files.
 </para>

 <para>
  The name appearing next to each item represents the major developer for
  that item.  Of course all changes involve community discussion and patch
  review, so each item is truly a community effort.
 </para>

 <!--
 To add a new major-release series, add an entry here and in filelist.sgml.

 The reason for splitting the release notes this way is so that appropriate
 subsets can easily be copied into back branches.
