wiz a4fabc4b58 Update to 4.4, provided by Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven in PR
31219.  Corrected the DESCR while here.

4.4:
The Version 4.4 release is a maintainance release. It introduces
no backwards-incompatible changes. All valid DocBook 4.3 documents
are also valid DocBook 4.4 documents.

The genesis of this release is a bug in the catalog files for
DocBook V4.3. The Committee decided to produce a 4.4 release,
incorporating a few recent backwards-compatible changes, rather
than simply produce a 4.3.1 release to fix the bugs.

4.3:
The Version 4.3 release is a maintainance release. It introduces
no backwards-incompatible changes. All valid DocBook 4.2 documents
are also valid DocBook 4.3 documents.

DocBook provides a system for writing structured documents using
SGML or XML. It is particularly well-suited to books and papers
about computer hardware and software, though it is by no means
limited to them.
In short, DocBook is an easy-to-understand and widely used DTD.
Dozens of organizations use DocBook for millions of pages of
documentation, in various print and online formats, worldwide.
