Out of curiosity, have you done any more work on that WIP AsciiDoc  
replacement since you last wrote to the list about it back in October?

I'm on a new OS install now, so just yesterday and today I had to set  
up the AsciiDoc/DocBook/xmlto toolchain again, and was reminded of how  
painful it was. At least on Mac OS X, it requires installing a bunch  
of dependencies (and specific versions of them otherwise it won't  
work), hacking Makefiles, installing a bunch of XSL and DTDs, and  
setting up XML catalogs. Doable but annoying.

Cheers,
Wincent
