Not sure. I tried digging into Publican once, but got lost in the Perl.
What I do know is that Publican is very particular about how you set up
and organize your documents. I know it took quite a bit of work to get
the OpenStack docs even buildable with Publican, for example. And AFAIK
Publican is DocBook-only. So, even to get it to handle our docs will
likely be a lot of work, let alone whatever customizations you want on
top of that.

It is worth looking into sharing solutions with other projects. But most
projects seem to do what we've done: home-brew a solution that fits
exactly their needs. Hard to share that.
