Hello Zopistas -

I have uploaded on my starship account

http://starship.python.net/crew/pavlos/

the first stable version of a simple PDF document formatter. It comes with
a minimal HTML to PDF converter that supports enough HTML to convert most
StructuredText documents. (See Acquisition.pdf in the doc directory).

Unfortunately it is too slow to become the basis of a Zope product but it
was designed with that goal in mind.

If the ZDP folk use well structured html (or just StructuredText) to write
the ZDP documents and FAQs we will easily have a relatively good quality
documentation ready with not too much effort.

Included in the distribution is a patched version of StructuredText.py,
which fixes some minor bugs.
