That is the essential part.
I hear from all sites that DocBook is a bit overwhelming for non-technical
people. They would love to contribute but don't want to install and work with
a complex toolchain just for fixing a simple typo.
For this reason, AsciiDoc would be a good start. Unfortunately, I have to
agree what Warren said about the lack of "semantic power". Funny sidenote,
AsciiDoc was based on DocBook. ;)
By the way, DocBook5 is based on a RELAX NG schema. It can be written in a
compact version (RNC) or in a XML syntax (RNG). Both are interchangeable
without loss of information. It would be great if AsciiDoc would fill this
gap, so both XML experts and non-technical inclined people could be satisfied.
