Re: [docbook-apps] Docbook website tutorial

[Lou Springer <lou@louspringer.com>]

This looks like really nice work. I'm going to have to try it out to 
give it a full workout.

I have a question more related the tool chain design than the document. 
I assume there must be some constraint that prevents the use of standard 
Docbook 5 and the related HTML stylesheets?

Also, do you think it might be helpful to recommend some editing tools? 
On the other hand, I suppose there are many options that are already 
documented elsewhere on your site.
