[ZDP] Is there a plan for ZDP?

[Craig Allen]

I think that ultimately we're talking about quite a number of documents,
don't know if DocBook gets any easier with practice or whether it's
tedious every time.

While there are many times when I really like to have printed
documentation, seems like hypertext has some real advantages, if the
author(s) invest the time to do the marking up.  If DocBook can generate
HTML and PDF, that sounds good.

Seems like Zope would be a highly appropriate repository.  WebDAV would
be super for ZDP contributions, tho I expect many Zopistas aren't likely
to be using IE5 (could be way off on this one!).
