What's available then?

- Conglomerate goes in the right direction, but it is very incomplete (I
couldn't even find table support)
- Installation of the add-ons for LyX to be able to export to Docbook is a
major endeavour, at least on MacOS X
- The other open-source textprocessors (openoffice...) aren't better than
Abiword for Docbook editing.

All other solutions I know about are commercial, the one with the best
price/performance I have tried so far is probably Serna.

Sincerely,

Wolfgang Keller
