XML for sure, and personally I'd use DITA. DITA for 3 reasons .. 1) the

OK, conceptually, I understand the value of dividing each part of the document into a single-purpose element and that DITA might be better than the mishmash of DocBook. However, when I look at the DITA applications in structapps.fm, I cannot tell which application is used for plain ordinary text (i.e. what consitutes <para>). How does one use DITA for:
--Book
----Chapter
------Section
--------Body

Is this what the DITA map is?
[And here I thought we were going to have geographical maps in the book 8-) ]

Thanks,

P.S. I have ordered XML AND FRAMEMAKER by Kay Ethier but it won't be here for several days
