After some quick investigations, I found that the text version of insref
is almost AMB-ready, it only needed to have a TOC generated.
I wrote a script that splits insref into multiple "chapters" using the
Linux csplit command and then auto-generated a TOC from there. It is not
perfect, because the files sometimes have mentions "See chapter xyz for
abc", and these are not linkified, but it's as good as I can get it to
be without spending too much time on it.
This is how it looks like:

The AMB file itself can be downloaded here:
http://mateusz.viste.fr/tmp/amb/insref.amb
And the script I created for the occasion is here:

Hi Christian,
Your docs seem very interesting! I didn't know about them. Having them
available as AMB books would definitely be very cool.
I am not very fond of HTML as a source-to-be-processed data, but the halibut
thing appears very promising. I will see how hard it would be to create a
halibut2amb converter.

I don't think I have the free time to convert them, but if I sent

the ODT files, could you convert
Sure, if the books are terminal-friendly (ie. no illustrations or
illustrations can be removed easily).
Hi,
I wonder whether you could convert my documentation to AMB format too?
Most of it is found at [1] -- each HTML file contains a link to the
corresponding hg repository near the end, which has the source. Such as
[2].The source format is that accepted by the Halibut documentation
preparation system [3]. Perhaps you can convert from either the HTML
output or the Halibut sources to AMB?
