[Scilab-Dev] Problem with the help

[Vincent COUVERT]

Hi François,

The BETA release is still planned for the end of march or the first 
beginning of april.

About the "new standard XML syntax": this work has been externalized and 
is about to be finished, then we will just have to integrate the new XML 
file (Docbook subset based) and the Java help browser in the TRUNK. All 
conversion tools will be available for Scilab users.
