Currently, as far as I know, yes you do. I'm in the process of updating all
our docs from linuxdoc to docbook. The easiest way to do this is to leave
it all as sgml, so I focused on that. Do you know of an alternate toolset
we could use that would support xml that would let us build all the various
formats we want? Alternately, we could simply try and add support to the
macros for xml docs too.
