DocBook Wiki is a web application that is used to display and to edit online DocBook documents. It displays the documents directly from the DocBook(XML) format. It also supports several modes of editing (text, xml, latex, texi, etc.).

This is the initial release of docbookeasy. I have tried to make the installation easy, so that it can be installed without too much efforts. Importing a book into the system and displaying it should work for any DocBook document. Converting it to other formats should work as well. However, edit/approve does not work yet, adding media files (images) does not work, etc. DocBookEasy has basically the same idea as DocBookWiki, however it chunks the document in a different way. The new way of chunking the document is by using the <xi:include> tags, so the chunks connect naturally to each-other and all of them form a stand-alone DocBook document (while each of them remains a valid DocBook document on itself). So, there is no need for imploding (concating all the chunks), in order to process the whole document (for example converting to another format). It can be done simply by processing the root chunk. This eliminates the need for some "tricks" that are used in DocBookWiki. Another difference with DocBookWiki is that DocBookEasy uses customizations of the standard DocBook XSL stylesheets for processing (for example for chunking, for converting to html, etc.). DocBookWiki, on the other hand, uses its own XSL stylesheets. One advantage of using customizations of the standard DocBook XSL stylesheets is that DocBookEasy supports all (or most) of the DocBook tags, and most (or many) of the features that are supported by the standard stylesheets. Another advantage is that people who are familiar with the standard stylesheets may understand and customize DocBookEasy easily. I am making this initial release hoping that somebody may be interested in playing with it and probably may help me to fix any thing. One thing that can be changed, for example, is improving the display of the content (by customizing the DocBook XSL stylesheets and the CSS files), converting to other formats, etc.
