RE: [docbook-apps] blogging using DocBook articles or so ...

We have to be very conscious of who is the intended audiance.

Warning pontification: You can't be everything to everybody.

Creating DocBook XML and then getting the processing chain to work to
convert XML to HTML and then screwing around to get something to look
exactly the way you want it to in order to create a blog seems like way
overkill.

If something is not long or if the aesthetics are very critical, perhaps
DocBook is not the tool ?

I am not trying to start a flame war, just trying to look at things from
everybody's perspective.

So far I have been blogging on a couple of "blogger.com" blogs of mine,
and I got quite used to the capabilities there,
I mean WYSIWYG is not that disgusting, even for an open-minded emacs guy as
me,
but then бн

бн maybe there has already been an attempt to use DocBook for blogging?

I mean, *what* *is* a *blog* *really*???

A time-consecutive list of articles,
together with a commenting facility (but that's not most important, I
think),
and automatically supplied RSS and/or atom feeds.

Would be exciting to use DocBook also for that.

Kind regars,
J.
