I'm not sure it has to be in CVS. CVS is useful to allow people to
always have the latest version of the code, but this is not really
necessary for formatted docs; unlike code, you don't really need to
update your version of the doc everytime a typo is fixed.
I think having a script on WineHQ that periodically regenerates the
formatted docs in a variety of formats and makes them available for
download should be enough.

Most serious formats have converters for all kinds of other formats;
I'm not sure this makes any of them obsolete. We obviously need a
source format that can be converted to a lot of things; but DocBook is
not unique in this respect.

Agreed; if we put something in the tree, it has to be plain ASCII.
