I've seen a web page about it but I haven't yet looked into it seriously.
Will look again, in more detail.

I gather that it's built upon scribble.  The manual ( 
https://docs.racket-lang.org/pollen/ ) seems to be one meta-level above 
the level of the scribble tutorials I've found.  Instead of descibing 
how to put together a manuscript that can produce, say, both html and 
pdf (possibly via TeX) output it seems to describe how you could define 
notations that could to that.

Now you need that for any kind of sophisticated use (which I gather is 
what I'll be doing) but it's really nice to know what's *already* 
available to produce documents.  Have I somehow missed that in the 
documentation bundle?

Also... pollen seems to be somewhat based on scribble.
Does is share scribble's problem of not being able to nest @include-section 
within another tag, like
@italic{
  @include-section["other-file"]
}
