Let's look at how much fun it is to do XML examples with DocBook...

<programlisting>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?&gt;

&lt;!DOCTYPE sqlMapConfig
    PUBLIC "-//ibatis.apache.org//DTD SQL Map Config 2.0//EN"
    "http://ibatis.apache.org/dtd/sql-map-config-2.dtd"&gt;

&lt;!-- Always ensure to use the correct XML header as above! --&gt;

&lt;sqlMapConfig&gt;
...

Eww....this would not make me want to update our docs more often..... ;-)

OK, just for fun I converted the tutorial to docbook. The dev guide is
going to be a bigger project that I wanted to do this morning.

I have not committed it yet, but it is attached in case anyone wants
to look at it or try to tweak the build to generate a PDF from it. It
looks like you can generate Javahelp and Eclipse help files from this,
too. That might be interesting...

If anyone has an example of how to generate a pdf from it using ant,
I'd convert the dev guide and wire the generation into the build.
