This adds a new EPUB stylesheet and the various bits of machinery needed to produce a basic EPUB file. Currently, the code is very incomplete and the resulting EPUB is unpleasant to look at due to CSS (or lack of). Affects: #13

This completes all of the stylesheet updates needed to produce working (but not necessarily particularly attractive) EPUB files. Affects: #13

This introduces a backwards-compatible 7.1 schema that allows for the specification of new metadata properties. This allows for, for example, defining EPUB cover images. The existing 7.0 schema was updated to allow for extension, but no validation-time behaviour has changed. The stylesheets have been updated to handle elements from both schemas. Affects: #13

This adds language documentation, and fixes a bug in the schema that effectively rejected footnote references that were referring to footnotes in the wrong scope. The schema now accurately reflects the fact that footnote references can only reference footnotes in the containing section, as was intended all along. Affects: #13

This adds code to generate toc.ncx files for EPUB2 readers. Unfortunately, visual results are likely to be unpleasant given the quality of rendering in EPUB2 readers. Affects: #13

Naturally, the EPUB3 standard decided that it was just too easy and reliable to parse NCX files, so they switched to free-form XHTML instead. This, naturally, means that implementations vary on how much they can extract from XHTML TOCs. This change switches to a flat linear list for TOCs. Affects: #13

This removes all uses of stRegion and starts simplifying the markup further. Currently, TOCs are not rendered. The stylesheets need drastic refactoring for the sake of sanity. Affects: #13

This completely rewrites all of the stylesheets, and adds a hard division between version 7 and version 8 of the schema. Affects: #13

The existing XHTML multi stylesheet is sufficient for EPUB support, although some extra code will be needed to generate EPUB metadata. Essentially, the existing XHTML can be used but with the navigation footers/headers stripped away.
