Thank you :)

There were no responses at all but I wasn't really expecting any anyway - if coding guidelines exist I would be delighted to follow them though. 
Right now the stylesheets are very much a work in progress and we've decided to target 'normal' XHTML as well as EPUB due to a change in Penguin's requirements. They're still happy for me to pass on the results of the project though.

Penguin Books, the client, have given me  permission to modify these to remove Penguin specific components (the poetry and drama mark-up are slightly more complex with a few additional elements) and make them available for the DocBook project if they're wanted. Additionally, another client are looking at DocBook Publishers to FO and are willing to fund that development.
