It resembles my situation some time ago when incorporating (external) Author-it documentation into our Docbook based workflow. Although it is presented as single source tool with ability to 'export' XML file, this XML is rather a database dump of various tables with complex relationships, which turned out to be too complex for converting into a typical document structure. We finally decided to migrate those documents manually (copy & paste). Most of them were later refactored anyway to match our writing style/rules. But it depends on the ammount... Btw, what is the reason to abandon Flare in favor of Docbook?
