I have used AsciiDoc as a starting point to create training material, and produced both print-ready PDF and HTML complete with colour-coded code examples. Fundamentally, if we have logical markup to start with, we can produce whatever output we want. At that fundamental level, whether it's DocBook or DITA is not important. What's important is logical markup, so everything has a known purpose. If we know what any portion of the document is for, we can make good decisions about what to do when we produce output. I will be interested if anyone does create a DITA proof of concept. There is a DocBook to DITA transformation XSLT stylesheet: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dita-ot/files/Plug-in_%20dockbook2dita/docbook2dita%201.0/dbdita.zip/download, so whoever is working on the POC could try it out to convert some of our existing DocBook.
