Do you mean it works for both docbook and linuxdoc?

The downside to having a browser/reader for sgml is that one needs to
spend a little time learning how to use it. If one already knows how
to use an html browser, then they can read the document in html
without needing to learn the use of new software.
If you want many people to use your software, then you might turn it
into a Debian package. Also, I understand that Gnome will have
something like this to get help by converting directly from docbook.
