Very nice, Suryajith, that's a great start.  Expanded with some additional 
details and rigor and that could even become a viable paper submission.  Look 
forward to reading a more complete version.

Nothing at all wrong with latex (it is the defacto standard for scientific 
papers).  That said, it will be desirable to convert it to Docbook/XML at some 
point too.  That's generally a better base format for revision control, 
separate of content and display (giving better web layout controls), and also 
supports export to ps, pdf, html, etc, while supporting most of the others 
things you can do with latex too.

Cheers!
