Subject: DocBook -> Wiki
Hi, I'm thinking of putting together some DocBook -> Wiki XSL stylesheets. This is to attempt to solve the problemm (other suggestions gratefully received) of handling simultaneous multiple reviewers of a DocBook document. The idea is that, having put together the Admin Guide for a release of our software, the author publishes it on our internal Wiki before handing it to our Release Engineering team for testing. As the RE team discovers bugs in the documentation, they can alter/annotate it on the Wiki, where their changes will be immediately visible to the rest of Release Engineering, and to the original author. Using the Wiki's change control tracking, the document author will be able to see the comments and changes made by the Release Engineering team, and then selectively (and manually) roll them back into the original DocBook - I'm not trying to roundtrip the document via the Wiki and back again, as I know that the conversion will be lossy. Has anyone else attempted this? Does it sound useful? I'd also appreciate some guidance as to how I should start - should I take an existing (e.g. HTML) set of stylesheets, or just write my own from scratch? I've done a lot of customisation of the HTML and XSL- FO stylesheets, so I have a pretty good idea what's involved either way. Thanks, Geraint North Principal Engineer Transitive
