As a digital publishing professional, let me second your statement heartily. I think we are not that far from being able to import automatically any ePub in TW5, or via a mere drag and drop. Apart from writing an ad hoc importer, I think that the only remaining obstacle is the handling of HTML anchors. Once we get the ability to convert ePub to TW5 (we are talking about potentially 4 million ebooks), we'd have a book format that is truly rooted into the Web, instead of just having PDF replaced with HTML. That would make a huge difference for readers and writers. Now, that doesn't mean that the publishing world is about to be conquered: ebooks are currently sold mostly by vendors (Amazon, Apple,..) who don't like open formats. Xavier.
