    	verbatim-size-factor.  Patch by David Aumueller.

    2003-04-29  Adam Di Carlo <adicarlo@users.sourceforge.net>

    	* dbcompon.dsl: Finding the subtitle for a component should use the parent title if
    	set; this is consistent with how the title is already set;
    	closes SF bug 613773.

    	* dbcompon.dsl: Suppress some cases where components were restarting page numbering,
    	fix from Ian Castle; closes SF bug 439751.

    	* dbttlpg.dsl: Add elements to print version of article-titlepage-recto-elements so
    	that it matches the HTML version, fixes SF bug 626909.

    2003-04-26  Adam Di Carlo <adicarlo@users.sourceforge.net>

    	* dbparam.dsl: rename parameter admon-graphic-default-extension to
    	%admon-graphics-extension% for consistency

    	* dbparam.dsl: Note that %admon-graphics-path% requires the trailing directory separator
    	 --

    	* dbparam.dsl: %admon-graphics-extension% will use the old name,
    	admon-graphic-default-extension, if set

    2003-03-25  Adam Di Carlo <adicarlo@users.sourceforge.net>

    	* db31.dsl, dbblock.dsl, dbcompon.dsl, dbgraph.dsl, dbinline.dsl, dbqanda.dsl, dbsect.dsl, docbook.dsl:

    	* dblists.dsl: In process-listitem-content replace (process-node-list (children
    	(current-node))) with (process-children-trim) -- we need to be
    	trimming whitespace.  Some retabbing.

    	* dbprint.dsl: $paragraph$ should use (process-children-trim); this fixes a space
    	indent in RTF output on all PARAs marked up like:
    	   <para>
    	Content ...

    	* dbtable.dsl: Remove the %cals-cell-before-column-margin% hack for TeX backend, it's
    	not needed anymore.

    2003-02-13  Adam Di Carlo <adicarlo@users.sourceforge.net>

    	* dbblock.dsl: element footnote/para uses default-text-style; set lines: wrap for the
    	case of endnotes within verbatim 'asis' environments, but it doesn't
    	seem to actually help (cf test programlisting.004)

    2003-02-07  Adam Di Carlo <adicarlo@users.sourceforge.net>
