Hope that I am not shooting myself in the foot to recommend asciidoc, because you are writing in (almost) plain text and have all sort of tools to post-process for you, be it doc-book, or latex, to produce anything, html file, pdf files, slides, etc, etc. What prompted me to the recommendation is that, today I noticed on the asciidoc mlist (http://groups.google.com/group/asciidoc/), the Mallard is now supported as another asciidoc backend, just like the doc-book/latex does. Hope that could make LUbuntu documentation a bit easier.
