  This is strange; I just got a similar question over the cubicle
wall.  Hmm.. must be a conspiracy.  I'm not tellin'!  ;)
  At this time, no, just explain in the text and assume it *will*
change when we migrate to SGML, but I haven't decided what it will
look like yet.  I don't know how wise it would be to make extensive
changes without some form of explicit markup that we can at least
convert & extract.  (That could create a requirement for a lot of
human intervention to complete the conversion.)
  Per my documentation plan sent to the Doc-SIG yesterday, I expect
the 1.6 docs to be generated from the LaTeX due to the accelerated
schedule.
