I think it looks very nice. But I wished you had asked before doing all 
this work: what you did had been done by our famous and probably 
completely vanished documentation group before (more or less) - the 
problem is that the BeBook is a copyrighted text, and we cannot just 
use it like this.
I'm afraid we have to recreate it as is, by having a look at our 
implementation.

But maybe you can work with Jérôme on the details of the Docbook 
conversion, as he was the one that brought us what we have now (under 
src/documentation/).

If you're interested to continue to work on the documentation, we would 
appreciate it.

Bye,
   Axel.
