Do you want to drop the XML entirely, or just replace the content

Sorry, I see I wasn't clear in my original post. The XML file can stay,
it's just the syntax used for the documentation content in the <short> and
<descr> that should change. It's the help content syntax I have a issue
with, not the usage of the XML file itself.
In that case, you'll still have problems with < and > (and possibly other)
characters, unless you plan to put everything in CDATA sections.
a) The asciidoc parsing (or whatever you call it) engine *must* be in the FCL
Not a problem.
With modified LGPL license ?

Again, not a problem.
In that case, I expect your patch next week ;-)
And of course I do not intend converting the current documentation to
asciidoc :-)
I wasn't suggesting that, but I do intend to write a converter from the old
format to new format. You can decide if you want to switch or not.
