They defined their own syntax based on docbook, and created an entire build-system based on xml. Their syntax is very easy to understand, unlike sgml (although the primer is great, I just started translating a chapter for the dutch handbook for the first time). You can read more about GuideXml on the Gentoo site: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gdp/ Kind regards, Ruben Kerkhof
