I have very little exposure to it, but SilverStripe 
(http://www.silverstripe.com/) might merit some investigation.

There are three main reasons I'm interested in adopting a CM solution:
1. Our small technical publications department has started to 
translate 20+ manuals, 3 Eclipse help systems, and several HTML 
documents into non-English languages (such as French) and I'm finding 
it difficult to manage all the content for handoffs. This year the 
number of languages we'll be translating will potentially triple, so I 
would like to be able to generate reports on where the linked content, 
entities files, graphics files, and graphics source files reside for 
each document, and also keep track of files that have been handed off 
to the translation agencies. (Right now it's a bit of a mess.)
2. Ideally, a CM solution would keep all of the components of the 
DocBook toolchain (Saxon, FOP, etc.) updated, and I could simply 
maintain the custom stylesheets we use. Unfortunately, I don't have 
time to continously update the toolchain components.
3. Our company is growing, so we'll be hiring additional writers this 
year. Although our DocBook implementation works fine for me, it's 
unwieldly and difficult to train new writers. Ideally, a CM 
solution integrates with a user friendly, WYSIWYG authoring tool 
(rather than the Eclipse editor that I use). The authoring tool 
doesn't need to be part of the CM solution, and it could be third 
party tool such as the Oxygen editor.
We already use Perforce to control DocBook XML source, so I don't need 
a CM solution for checkin/checkout. If the CM solution provided a 
central database repository for source control, I'd consider switching 
to that instead if the other CM benefits are compelling.

Hi Jeff,
There is a pretty wide range of content management systems out there.  
All of them would support checking in DocBook files, since those are 
just text files.  It would help if you could post some more detailed 
requirements.  What are you looking for the system to do?  How will it 
be used, and by how many people, etc.

I'm looking for a content management solution that supports
DocBook. I would consider both commercial and open source
solutions. I would appreciate any recommendations, warnings, or
tips that anyone has to offer.
I'm also considering upgrading from DocBook 4.5 to DocBook 5.x, so
would be interested to hear of CM solutions that support DocBook 5.x.

A related question here.
If you imported a docbook (or any other XML file) into a CMS,
would you expect it to be validated (and rejected  if
the file were not valid docbook ) on import?

Something I found this week which surprised me.
A well formed document, but invalid, was rejected.

Hello,

I have revived and updated the corresponding wiki page:
http://wiki.docbook.org/ContentManagementTools
If any of you know of other CMS supporting DocBook, please add them!
I'm sure there are many more.

Only if I programmed it to do so.  A CMS should be able to support your check-in 
policies and scripts.  SVN can do that with a trigger script.
