+Last night I was updating the [man page][man] for [Bugs
+Everywhere][BE] to [DocBook v5.0][DB].  I'm glad that DocBook is
+moving towards XML and processing tools I'm familiar with
+([xsltproc][]), because the SGML DocBook-to-man tools always felt a
+little rough around the edges.
+
+If you are interested in DocBook-based manpages, take a look at my
+[documentation][doc] and [installation][install] notes in the BE
+documentation.  You can also try the [official BE documentation][BE
+doc], but that sometimes lags behind my version.
