That's good to know. I was under the impression it had to be submitted as
DocBook XML. Thanks!

OK. Its been 10 years since I lasted looked at the FBSD documents. Nowever, I know SGML, XML,
and have written documents in them.

1. Point me to the source of one of the documents as a starting point.
2. Point me to the tools that I need to use to massage the document.
   (There used to be a Documenter's Handbook, is it still around?)

I will take one of these documents as a starting point and then update it.

HOWEVER... I am hoping that one of the document team will 'proof' this for format and content.

The books and articles are in DocBook XML 5.

Chapter 9 shows examples of DocBook markup.

Articles are simpler than books.  For example:
