Jon Bosak's html32c.dsl (formatting HTML 3.2 with DSSSL) has an error:
 
 (element TH
   (make table-cell
 	n-rows-spanned: (string->number (attribute-string "COLSPAN"))
 ....
 
The colspan attribute is converted to rows-spanned, instead of
columns-spanned.

Jon says that a) he is not really supporting this, and would rather
someone else took it over, and b) the table part was borrowed from
elsewhere.

so

 a) is anyone interested enough to take over this script?
 b) is that table code maintained by anyone, or used elsewhere in an
   uncorrected form?
