Yesterday, I posted a rant about Docbook, Wikis, and how they're fundamentally different, on the PHP documentation list.

Since the audience of that list is fairly limited, and its participants generally of the same mind, concerning Docbook's virtues, I thought I'd re-post it here for all to see.

I'd like to know your opinion. Especially if you're proficient in Docbook, but disagree with me.

A predominant PHP developer (whose name I didn't get permission to drop, so I won't, but many of you know who I mean) has been doing a bunch of research related to Cross Site Scripting (XSS), lately. It's really opened opened my eyes to how much I take user input for granted.

Don't get me wrong. I write by the "never trust users" mantra. The issue, in this case, is something abusable that completely slipped under my radar.
