Thank you. I can understand this clearly :)

OK, then I take over this sgml-tools package, because I (and other
members in JF project) do need this package and we use it very often
currently. We (JF project) are now planning to move toward docbook dtd,
but the existing LDP documents are almost all in LinuxDoc DTD, and
since we (JF member) are not the original author for them, we can not
change this. (maybe we can feed back the docbook converted documents
to authors, but we have not enough people to do so...)

Again, Sorry for my misunderstanding of your words.

# I took your "In case you want to take ..." means

# I found it is totally wrong. excuse me.

and Thank you for having created and maintained this package and 
give me a chance of using it.

I will work to close some more bugs in newer pacakge 1.0.9-2 of
sgml-tools, as my package.
