So if for my current project I use vanilla docbook 5 XSL (no
namespaces), it should work for me?
Not sure what you mean here. I consider "DocBook 5 XSL" to be the namespaced -ns-
version of the stylesheets, because the -ns- version directly processes DocBook 5
documents in the Docbook namespace. The epub3 beta is written as an addon for the
non-namespaced version of the stylesheet. That version handles DocBook 4 documents
directly, and it handles DocBook 5 documents by first stripping off the namespace of
the document elements and then processing it as a Docbook 4 document.
If you install the addon with the -ns- namespaced stylesheets, I don't think it will
work for either DocBook 4 or 5. If you install it with the non-namespaced
stylesheets, then it should work with either DocBook 4 or 5. It has been tested by me
with only one Docbook 5 document so far. Does that answer your question?

Hi, there, thanks for doing this and I appreciate the thoroughness of
the readme file.
One question. you said, "This directory contains a beta version of XSL
stylesheets for generating EPUB3 output from DocBook 4 content. The
stylesheets should work for DocBook5 content by first stripping off
the namespace, but that feature has not yet been extensively tested."
So if for my current project I use vanilla docbook 5 XSL (no
namespaces), it should work for me?

Hi,
I have updated a beta 3 version of the epub3 stylesheets for DocBook
XSL to SourceForge. It is in this directory:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/docbook/files/epub3/
and the README there describes the changes to this version.
