All,

With JavaOne around the corner, I figured it would be good time to make
some announcements, aka shameless advertising.

For those of you who are not completely satisfied by the kind of DocBook
support that Maven has on board, or the Mojo at mojo.codehaus.org,
here's a chance to try something different.

I just pushed a version from my own personal DocBook supporting plugin
to the Maven repository at http://agilejava.com/maven/ (which is -
contrary to what you might expect from it by its name - a Maven 2
repository). 

Being the father of this baby, I am of course convinced that it has some
nice distinguishing features, including:

     1. Based on the DocBook XSL stylesheets, however...
     2. Completely self-contained; you don't need to install the DocBook
        XSL stylesheets on your system. You don't even need to have the
        DTD's on your system, and you can run the plugin if you are
        offline.
     3. Dedicated configuration support for a huge collection of
        properties to influence the transformation. (In fact, it has
        dedicated properties for all XSL parameters documented in the
        DocBook XSL distribution.)
     4. It has been built using a dedicated Maven plugin to generate
        DocBook Maven plugins.

Feel free to give it a try. And read more about it on my web log:

Cheers, 

Wilfred
