Jason,


Thanks for your response. I'am already using Poseidon for the UML part, and after searching and reading a while I think I'll adopt DocBook. What software do you use to author DocBook documents? A plain XML editor with DTD validation or do you use anything else?

Ahh yes, I forgot that bit....


XMLmind XML Editor (XXE) (http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/)

The Standard Edition is free and managed to do everything I needed (there is a Pro version with added features). XXE features DTD and XML Schema aware editing commands and a word processor-like view configured using W3C's cascading style sheets. That gives it a WYSIWYG feel which is really quite cool.

We also created our own extensions to DocBook to support Use Cases eg actors, preconditions etc. Adding a CSS file means we could see what they would almost look like when rendered into PDF or HTML.

Then used an XSLT to convert Use Case->DocBook, then we could use the DocBook->HTML/FOP/etc standard XSLTs.

It supports DocBook straight off so it is very easy to use without the extra stuff we did.
