What is the best source format for conversion? Are there command-line tools for conversion that would not bloat our doc toolchain too much? Is the best way to use another XSL transformation like the one that produces the HTML version? Is there an existing set of stylesheets for a DocBook to EPUB transformation that could be used? So it comes up, but either other projects have a higher priority, or volunteer motivation is lacking, or both. Help with this is welcome.
