Most of the senior editors around here use Emacs and psgml. We have a complete toolchain for rendering documents into HTML so you can check output in your favorite Web browser. We can take original composition in other forms, but since the canonical IG is already in DocBook in our CVS, it really makes more sense to work on it there. If we have a team willing to work in DocBook and in CVS, and they do the necessary work to get a CVS account (CLA, etc.), I will be happy to sponsor them and we can simply restrict access to the installation-guide module for now. As an aside, plain text messages to the list are appreciated since HTML throws a lot of Linux email clients for a loop. -- Paul W.
