that would be highly appreciated. Here is what I'm currently using:

http://synopsis.fresco.org

I'd love to be able to generate these pages from docbook and still
have all the power and flexibility to style. There are some tricky
corner cases such as the changelog page, which is actually an rss
(the xsl stylesheet is heavily based on Norm's own stylesheets),
or the viewcvs pseudo-html templates.
It would be nice if the website stylesheets would provide hooks for
users to generate their own non-standard (i.e. not-quite-html) output.
