Hi All,

I found that the latest docbook-xsl release has a nice script for
generating EPUB ebook format from docbook sources.  I tested this last
night with the manual and it worked reasonably well.  There's a post
about it here:

http://labs.oreilly.com/2009/02/docbook-xsl-1dot74dot1-improves-epub-output.html

I found that at least here on OSX, the ports installation of
docbook-xsl did not include the script.  I downloaded the latest
docbook-xsl tarball and it had the script, and I was able to run:

~/Downloads/docbook-xsl-1.74.1/epub/bin/dbtoepub manual.xml

from the manual directory and got a manual.epub as output.

I'm not sure if it's of use to include as part of the Makefile? And do
we want to start supporting this?

Thanks!
steven

I think it should be supported if it is low maintenance.

Thanks,
Mike

Yeah, it sort of "just worked" which was nice.  I'm regenerating the
manual now and will post it on my site for review.
