ok, that's right. Anyway, I can't do it myself now but if somebody is
interested, I can help. Maybe some of the Daisy gurus here can comment on the
idea itself?
It shouldn't be too hard. If it is just for publishing, you don't even
need the Daisy client libraries, being able to do a HTTP request is
enough.
Actually, I should correct my previous statement the Forrest plugin uses
the http API not the Java client API. No need for the Java API at this
stage.
I'm not sure what the difficulties are that Ross refers too in
reusing the navigation documents. A basic plugin can probably be created
in a day (by an experienced Java/XSLT person).
Actually, my comment was misleading, sorry.
The "difficulties" are not with Daisy itself, rather with the fact that
we need(e) to maintain the existing directory structures of the
documents and the Daisy nav system didn't work in the same way as the
old nav system.
With the 2.2 docs there is no legacy structure to maintain so it will be
much easier.
