It seems we are using the article style which we can easily enough translate into a book style (or two) with the articles being chapters.
Also I notice the mvn plugin is using docbook 4.4. All of the latest docbook dev is happening with v5. Not sure if its a matter of changing the pom.xml or whether v5 is not in mvn repository. I can look at this stuff later - at the moment am about to lose my table and internet connection ....
