No arguing writing in docbook can be a bit 'challenging' for some things.
I'm all for keeping it easy for the devs to edit and review patches. I
have a nervous twitch in my stomach about format proliferation though.
I do not want to end up back where we were a year ago.
The doc will never be considered 'done' though, docs never are. Someone
will have to make the call at some point and say 'close enough, convert
to docbook.'
