Not really hands, but specifics. 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.
