And, if so, where are the focal points (e.g. email > lists and such)? I don't know about HTMLBook, but some publishers (eg. Hachette) started using HTML + CSS for producing PDF output. Regarding HTMLBook -- I don't think it's that simpler then DocBook because you have to use data-type attribute to specify precise meaning of element, so where in DocBook you write: <appendix> in HTMLBook you have to write: <section data-type="appendix"> Also for HTMLBook supported output formats are much more limited then for DocBook, at least for now. I think that HTMLBook is internally in O'Reilly and it's probably in the heart of https://atlas.oreilly.com which looks like very interesting on-line environment for producing books.
