Fear not, Greg. I originally wrote *everything* in Docbook SGML, then
migrated to Docbook XML, so that I could post PDF, XML source, and
single-/multi-page HTML formats for readers. However, I found that
almost no one was checking anything but the HTML, and I was having
trouble making changes quickly enough. So, XML abandoned *for my site*.
It should be no trouble at all to quickly redo the markup on a document
for submission, however. I already have sufficient knowledge of Docbook
XML to do that without trouble, and it would likely take less than 2-3
hours of work total.
