its not maintained, but it should work. the problem is that it outputs docbook sgml, version 4.x. if i understand correctly transforming it into docbook xml is oneliner patch in lyx sources. what involves transformation into newer version, that i'm not sure but there are already working tools which do this if its not easy for us. to me it looks like that as far lyx sources is concerned it would be quite easy to make your dream true. what we miss is somebody who knows docbook well enough to provide us the information what exactly should be changed in the output xml file (hint!). http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg151947.html http://www.neomantic.com/tutorials/lyx-and-docbookXML pavel
