documentation for ASF projects should not be used to promote other

I don't understand what you mean by "promoting an other agenda" -- I
thought
getting non-tech people to collaborate was part of the ASF agenda. Is
that really
going against the grain of the ASF?
Has anyone approached Forrest (http://forrest.apache.org) about
being able
to handle Open Document format, perhaps eating ODF and outputing other
formats, as it currently emits HTML and PDF from multiple source
formats?
Alternatively, have you seen Daisy? Cocoon is using that to
collaboratively
edit their documentation.
We already have ODF to PDF and to HTML capability.
